Whether you have tried inshore fishing before or not, you need to book with D.C. Outdoor Adventures today. Captain Dennis Caracciolo has been fishing his whole life and is confident that you will have a great day on the water with him.

You'll spend the day on board his 21' Duckwater boat, a new vessel with comfortable seating and plenty of space for up to 4 anglers. With a 175 HP Suzuki engine, she will get you to the fish soon, where her fishfinder and Capt. Dennis's extensive knowledge of the area will make sure you stay on top of the fish the whole day!

You will target a range of species, depending on what is in season. These include Striper, Flounder, Bluefish, Porgy, Seabass, and Weakfish. You'll use a range of techniques to catch them, but if you prefer fly fishing, spearfishing, or bow fishing you'll have to bring your own equipment. Just let the captain know beforehand so he can prepare space on board.

No matter your age or experience you are more than welcome aboard. There is no minimum age for children, as Capt. Dennis believes that the parents will know best when their child is ready to start fishing. Kids love these inshore trips, as the waters are not too rough, but they are still productive. The little ones will have some great stories to tell their friends back at school!

Live bait will be caught before the trip. This is great as it gives you more time to fish for your targeted species instead. All rods and reels will also be included, which are Penn International. This fantastic gear won't let you down when you are reeling in your dream catch.

Snacks and drinks are not included but are a great idea to bring. You will also need to buy a fishing license before you come on board. Please note, it is industry standard to tip the first mate 20% at the end of the trip.

There is no better time to book. Start making some amazing fishing memories today with D.C Outdoor Adventures. You won't regret it!

Incredible trip!
Half Day Trip – Shared on October 24, 2026 • 2 adults

Had an awesome time fishing with Dennis this past Saturday. He was able to get us out last minute by pairing us up with another group, which I really appreciated. We had a beautiful day out on the water with blue skies and sunshine. We caught plenty of blackfish but all were undersized, and limited out on black sea bass. We even got gifted a triggerfish from the other group. At one point, the action was nonstop once Dennis put us on the fish. I also really appreciated how much I learned about targeting blackfish and other bottom-dwelling species. I was hoping to get some hands-on experience and learn a few things, and Dennis definitely delivered. Most definitely wasa fantastic day, and I'll absolutely be heading out with Dennis again. Thanks for a great trip!

Reported catch:
Black Seabass
Tautog

Captain Dennis will always make sure you catch fish
HALF DAY SHARED TRIP on May 1, 2026 • 1 adult • 1 child

Captain Dennis was great: patient, kind, knowledgeable. We didn’t catch any fish but my 10 year old and I decided to leave early because it was too cold for us. Dennis used different methods to catch fish since casting wasn’t working. He had all the equipment and materials we needed. We will definitely book with him again when it gets warmer.
