Fishing with Gregory
Half Day on August 17, 20253 adults1 child

Decided to take a fishing trip while staying in Ocean City, Captain Gregory was available on short notice. Everything went very smoothly, we started catching fish immediately. The boat was clean, Captain Gregory was very knowledgeable and accommodating to what we wanted to fish for. We hauled in several blacktip shark and 48” Cobia. He cleaned and packaged the cobia for us to take home. Overall one of the best charters we’ve done. Definitely would recommend.

Great Trip
Half Day on July 25, 20252 adults1 child

Captain Greg talked to us about what we wanted to do and how the weather would affect our plans. We fished the inlet and caught some flounder. After a while we were getting less action, so he moved us into the bay and we started catching again. Captain Greg was very helpful and informative. My 10 year old had a blast and caught his first flounder. He wanted to filet the fish we kept and Captain Greg showed him how to do it. Would highly recommend a trip with Lauriana Charters.

Capt Greg was awesome

Kind of a slow bite day but Capt Greg was awesome. Knew where to be and keep our lines on good drifts. Caught enough fish for fun and hit some keepers for dinner.

Captain Gregory Castellane has been guiding customers on exciting fishing trips since 2012 and isn't showing any signs of stopping! He holds a U.S. Coast Guard 100-ton master license. He's also an avid angler who won the Ocean City Marlin & Tuna club Shark Tournament with a massive 346 lb Thresher Shark! Capt. Greg is very hands-on and wants his guests to learn every single thing in the angling process. He says one of the more rewarding things about being a charter captain is teaching kids how to fish and watching them light up when they reel their first one in.
