Welcome aboard "Saltwater Adventures" with Capt.Tony Battista as your host.

The boat is a custom 25' CC that was built right here in Ocean City. It is powered by 200 HP "Yamaha" outboard, equipped with "Simrad" electronics and a 36 V "Minn Kota" Riptide Instinct Quest trolling motor.

"Light Tackle Fishing" is what we do. We pride ourselves in using only quality rods and reels. "No junk on this boat"......
Fishing is a huge passion of Capt.Tony. He has been fishing the waters in and around Ocean City for better than 50 years now.

Even on his days off, you will find him fishing with family and friends. It never gets old for him.

Capt. Tony will do what it takes to make sure you have the best experience possible. He is a great teacher and always willing to help you improve. From beginners to the more experienced, you will learn techniques that will improve your success on the water.

Just read the reviews….....

Clients have expectations when they book a trip and it is up to the captain to understand this.

Capt. Tony has built his businesses telling his clients the truth about the weather and fishing conditions that day. He is not in the "boat ride" business.

Somethings can't be controlled, but you wasting your money can…...

That being said, there are a lot of factors (science) involved when choosing when the best time is to take a trip. Tides, water temperature, water clarity and wind.

Time is also another concern, "How long of a trip should you book?" The answer varies. Are you looking just to bend the rods or do you want to take fish home with you or enjoy the "Hook & Cook" option at Fish Tales?

For a family with young kids just looking to bend some rods, a 2 hour trip is fine. You still have the opportunity to catch some keepers, but there are some limitations. That being time & distance.

If you are looking for the latter, I would suggest at least 3 hours if not 4.

These are all things Capt. Tony can discuss with you as your trip date approaches.
