Half Day Trip (AM) on October 12, 2019

I can't say enough good about Captain Dominic and first mate Joe on our trip. Due to a storm off the coast, the boat launch, docks, and parking lot were flooded. The water in the parking lot had to be close to 18" deep or more in spots. Captain Dom got his boat in the water and then drove his truck over to the high and dry spot in the parking lot where my group was to pick us up so we could get to the boat without getting a drop of water on us. I suspect the storm had the fishing a little off that day but that didn't stop our guides from working their tails off to get us on some fish. What started off as day without much hope turned out to be a great day on the water thanks to Dom and Joe's efforts. Thanks again guys!!

Captain Dominic and First Mate Joey were fantastic. Two of the best guys you could ever hope to meet. They took time to teach me about fishing for various species, which is what I really loved. Fishing is always a lot of fun, but learning how to do it right is the best! Oh, and we did fill the cooler with fish. I offer my highest recommendation for Fish Tales Sportfishing to anyone wanting to have a fantastic day on the Chesapeake Bay. My thanks to Dominic and Joey for providing me with an awesome day.

Excellent day on the water. My seven year old’s mission this year was to catch a shark, and Captain Dom wasn’t going to send us home without bagging one. Memorable day!

Captain Dominic Perrotte has not only always loved the water but also enjoyed the ability to harvest fresh fish for his family. He specializes in trolling, sight casting, and bottom fishing. Even though Capt. Dominic has been fishing his entire life, he began guiding professionally a couple of years ago. Dominic enjoys everything the waters have to offer and never stops exploring.
