Meet Captain Jonathan Oglesby of Eastern OBX Guide Service

Captain Jonathan Oglesby grew up in Clinton, North Carolina, surrounded by saltwater and a deep connection to the coastal lifestyle. From an early age, he developed a passion for fishing, learning the ropes from seasoned captains like Rom Whitaker on Hatteras Island and Tom Krauss. His years of experience fishing from Hatteras Inlet to Nags Head have given him a thorough understanding of the Outer Banks waters and the local fish species, making him a trusted expert in the area.


Jonathan enjoys sharing his knowledge with anglers of all skill levels. Whether guiding beginners to their first catch or helping experienced fishermen pursue trophy fish, he focuses on making every trip enjoyable and rewarding. His goal is to create memorable fishing experiences filled with camaraderie and success, ensuring guests leave with a lasting appreciation for the sport.


He employs a variety of fishing techniques tailored to the conditions and the preferences of his clients. From light tackle and bottom fishing to trolling and drift fishing, Jonathan adjusts his approach to maximize the chances of a good catch. He also offers fly fishing and bowfishing opportunities, encouraging anglers to explore different methods and challenges while on the water.


Captain Jonathan’s boat is a 23-foot C Hawk center console, built in 2021 for both comfort and performance. The vessel can accommodate up to five anglers and features a powerful 200HP Suzuki engine capable of reaching speeds up to 30 knots. Its center console design provides easy access to all parts of the boat, ensuring a safe and comfortable fishing environment. Whether fishing or cruising, this well-equipped boat is ready to support a productive and enjoyable day on the Outer Banks waters.
