Tournament Record
Right up front we would like you to know that by no means do we recommend choosing a Hatteras fishing charter boat based solely on the captain's tournament record unless you plan to charter that particular boat for a fishing tournament. A family outing can be easily ruined by fishing on a boat that is so concentrated on catching fish that the captain loses sight of the fact that the trip needs to be a fun experience and not a highly intense affair. At Sea Angel Charters we are absolutely committed to making sure that your fishing trip is a uniquely entertaining and enjoyable experience.
On the other hand, if you are going to be fishing with a bunch of experienced anglers, you may actually prefer an "intense" more concentrated fishing experience. At Sea Angel Charters we want you to be assured that Capt. Armstrong has nearly four decades of experience with a tournament record of results that just cannot be matched. Capt. Bruce Armstrong rarely takes tournament charters anymore but it's nice to know that you are fishing with a legend when it comes to past tournament success.
Here is a partial list of tournament finishes of boats captained by Capt. Bruce Armstrong in a few of the more prestigious and competitive tournaments.
