Full description and what we offer

Drayke Outfitters operates duck hunting and inshore/nearshore fishing charters throughout Eastern North Carolina, with trips ranging from the Pamlico Sound to the Core Banks. Captain Bradley Dray, a USCG-licensed captain and Eastern North Carolina native, built the service on a foundation of commercial fishing expertise and genuine local knowledge.

Captain Bradley Dray spent his career as a commercial fisherman and charter captain before launching Drayke Outfitters as an additional way to share his love of the outdoors. He also owns and operates Crystal Coast Fishing Co. Allison Dray handles operations and runs guide trips on weekends, bringing her own hunting and fishing background from Maryland's Eastern Shore. Shay, their 3-year-old black lab, works the duck hunts.
