    We caught Blackfish, Black bass, Porgie and strippers!! We kept most of the legal Porgies, but the others (even more than we kept, we released. O e of the most fun and memorable days we've had in a while!!!

    Great day for Striper fishing

    5 Hour Trip (PM) on May 26, 2025 • 2 adults

    Captain Ken Brodeur was the best. He has fished the area for years and took us to areas teeming with fish. Although we had not been striper fishing before, everyone in the group managed to hook up with fish. The boat was a great platform and very comfortable. We highly recommend fishing on Striper Snax.

    Great day out with Capt. Ken

    5 Hour Trip PM (Shared) on August 7, 2023 • 2 adults

    My father and I went on a charter recently with Captain Ken and had the time of our lives. When we were looking for him at the marina, all the people we asked said, “Oh he’s really cool, that’s gonna be fun,” and they were right. At no point were we not reeling in fish (all of which the biggest of our lives) and Captain Ken was tireless in his attentiveness, patience, and good advice. Absolutely planning to do another charter with Captain Ken and so should you. When the biggest problem is that you’re catching fish too big to keep, you’re having a good day on the water.

    3 Hour Kids Trip (PM) on July 1, 2025 • 3 adults • 1 child

    We had an amazing time with Captain Ken, he was so great with my son and a pleasure to be with. He had a fun sheet to fill out with all the species of fish we caught, answered all of his questions (there were a lot of questions), we had a fantastic time. Thank you! We will be back.

    Fish on!

    5 Hour Trip (PM) on September 13, 2024 • 3 adults

    Absolutely fantastic day of fishing! Wherever we stopped, from the start to the end of our trip, we all caught fish. Many times, all three of us had fish on at the same time. The Captain was on top of everything. Equipment was solid as was the boat. Perfect size for the 4 of us. I highly recommend Striper Snax Fishing Charters and we will book again. Thank you for a really great day on the water. Was a blast!

    Worth Every penny

    3 Hour Kids Trip (AM) on July 7, 2024 • 2 adults • 1 child

    This was my second trip with Captain Ken. This time it was me and my 10 year old son. Within 2 minutes of us dropping lines my son was pulling up his first fish and it didn't stop for the rest of the trip. Besides the large amount of Porgies we also hauled in a 36 Inch and 44 inch Stripper. I highly recommend fishing with Captain Ken.

    Great Trip

    3 Hour Kids Trip (AM) on July 3, 2024 • 3 adults • 2 children

    I booked the 3 hour kid trip for me and my two boys. They absolutely loved it. Captain Ken spoiled the kids. Teaching them and myself new fishing tips, finding some great fishing spots, and we even got to reel in a big striper! Highly recommend booking with Captain Ken as we will be booking again with him in the future!

Capt. Ken grew up in Milford, CT, fishing the waters of western Long Island Sound with his father in a 19' Mako. As a teen, Capt. Ken spent his summers working as a mate in City Island, NY, and winters in Pompano Beach, FL. In 1982 he earned his U.S.C.G. 6-pack license and in 1984 he upgraded to a 100-ton master license, which he currently holds. Capt. Ken then moved east to Mystic and began running charter boats out of Noank. From the early 1980's Capt. Ken fished with some of the best captains in the business – learning from them everything he could. Capt. Ken's fishing obsession isn't confined to saltwater. After competing in local bass fishing club tournaments he found success on the Bassmaster tournament trail, where he won the 2003 Bassmaster Open Championship on Toledo Bend in Louisiana. With that win Capt. Ken launched his professional bass fishing career and qualified to fish the Bassmaster Elite Series tournament trail, featuring the top 100 anglers in the country.
