What's up, y'all? I'm Captain James Craddock, but you're more than welcome to call me Jamesey Boy or just James. I would love for you to join me for a day on the water Sightseeing, Dolphin watching, Bird watching, and much more. I am a true native of the area, with 7+ generations of commercial fishing experience and being the fourth-generation captain/guide. I grew up on the water fishing pound nets and crab pots with my dad and even spent a summer on the trawl boat shrimping with my grandfather. All that to say, I love spending the day in the sun, especially on the water around my home. Safety and smiles are the most important things with me on the water.

    Beautiful and Relaxing Sunset Charter

    2 Hr – Soundside sunset adventure • 6 adults

    Captain James was a great tour guide! We were in OBX for a family vacation and were looking for a charter that could show us some local sights and the sunset. Captain James knew exactly where to find several pods of porpoises that were very active the day we went. He was very knowledgeable about the birds and other wildlife we saw and made us feel comfortable to enjoy the trip! We will definitely keep him in mind when we return next year! I think our favorite aspect of Muddy Creek was Captain James made us feel like we had ownership of the charter, he just wanted us to have a good time. Thank you Captain James!
