If you're looking for some of the best bay fishing that Ocean City, Maryland has to offer, look no further than Just A Toy Guide Service. They encourage both experts, beginners, and kids to come and catch fish with them.
For Captain Robert Anderson, fishing has been a passion all his life. He was hooked the first time his mother took him to a little creek for Catfish. His first job was as a mate on a head boat, fishing for Seabass and Cod. Over the years, he has acquired a great knowledge of the waters in the area. Even as times change, he keeps up with them, updating his techniques and tackle. He promotes catch and release so that the future young anglers can enjoy the sport he loves.
His boat is a 30' Century center console that can carry up to 4 anglers fishing simultaneously. Fully restored in 2018, it boasts twin 250 HP Mercury Verado engines, ice-boxes, and top-notch safety/navigational gear.
There are many different species and techniques to catch them, such as jigging, drifting, casting, and trolling. You'll be targeting Striped Bass, Spotted Seatrout, Flounder, Sheepshead, and more. The captain also specializes in night fishing for Stripers.
He runs his trips are year-round, so you can expect different species depending on the season. Spring will bring Tautog, Flounder, Bluefish and some Stripers. Fall fishing is excellent as well, with Flounder still hanging around Seabass and Tautog. When migrating Striper show up just off the beach, the captain will break out the planer boards and trolling gear to pick up some trophy size fish.
Just A Toy Guide Service uses only the best Penn gear so you can have the highest chances of landing that fish of your dreams. They provide soft drinks and water with some snacks, but you are welcome to bring your own.
So come join them and have the best time of your life!

Had a great time! Trip consisted of two teens, my husband and I as well as my 67 yr old mother. We all had a great time and caught fish. Boat had plently of room for everyone to fish and plenty of sitting room to take a break and rest your legs, did not feel like we were right on top of each other. Captain and grew were great! Captain was super laid back ( good energy is key for me!) and did everything he could to make sure we caught fish! Captain took us to different spots throughout bay and we used a variety of bait. First mate was very knowledgeable and kept our lines equipped and baited to ensure we were constantly fishing. I booked “Just a Toy” after searching through different captains and reading reviews, and had the best possible experince. We caught Tog right out the gate ( multiple) and then the flounder started biting and caught a few flounder. Overall would definitely book again and highly recommend!!!!

This was my 4 year old son’s first time on a boat and he caught his first fish. Both Captain Wayne and First Mate Tyler were perfect with him letting him do as much as he wanted to without pushing the limits too far when he got a little scared. We did a 2 hour morning trip and we were on fish the entire time. My wife also handed the first fish of her life and had a wonderful time even though she didn’t expect to ever hold a rod. In two hours we probably boated a dozen fish or so, with another handful that fell off or missed hook sets as my wife and son were learning. I’m definitely coming back again and would recommend it to anyone. It was enjoyable for me as someone who has fished for 34 years, my wife who never fished before, and my little one who has only ever fished with worm and a bobber and a kiddie rod. We also got to see a pod of dolphins which my son loved and the captain set the boats drift so we can see them longer and let me son enjoy the dolphins once we started to lose his interest.

First time and first day fishing in Ocean City...fished for 4 hours in the rain. Other than that...Capt and crew were great. Caught several tautogs, a few rockfish, a sheepshead and a skate. also tried for flounder..wasnt our day. Appreciated the capt working to catch as many species as possible per my request in a challenge to catch 50 species in 50 weeks. added 4 today and now at 35 with 3 more days in OC.

i caught a flying robin on my first cast. My son in law had a sea bass within 2 minutes. We both were catching something at the most 10 minutes apart. The conversation was fun and always laughing. The captain and mate were always there to help and give instructions. I would recommend a trip with them anytime.
We did the 5hr wreck trip. The weather wasn’t the best as it was raining with a northeast wind. The captain had us on the fish all morning. He and the mate worked hard and we had an awesome day of fishing. Would 100% recommend his services and wouldn’t hesitate to be a repeat customer.
We had a great time fishing! All my son wanted to do at the Ocean was to go fishing and he was do excited to catch a flounder! I was a bit sea sick (I'm more sensitive than most) so the Captain was sensitive to my need and got us to still waters. My kids had a great time out on the boat!!
caught lots of tautog. we were targeting sheeps but didnt find any. hooked something big, captain assumed it was a rwd drum, fought it for nearly 20 minutes and it broke off when it was almost to the boat. captain and mate were both friendly, knowledgeable and kept us fishing the whole trip
Both gentlemen were fantastic. I took my 15-year-old grandson and two of his friends, and they showed him a fantastic fishing trip. They enjoyed catching a few fish. Very helpful and knowledgeable. I didn’t feel rushed. I truly enjoyed going out and look forward to more. I feel this was a good value.
Captain and mate were great guys and fun to spend the day with. Captain Robert worked as hard as he could to get us on fish. Mate Tyler was absolutely nonstop to make our day perfect. Highly recommend booking with these guys. Very nice and clean boat too.
Capt Anderson and his mate were friendly, knowledgeable, and very patient with us as novice fishers. The fish were being stubborn but he took us around to several until we finally caught a few. we had such a goodd time and will book another trip next time we are in Ocean City.

We had an absolutely fantastic time on our 4-hour wreck fishing trip! Captain Wayne and First Mate Tyler were both incredible and made the experience so enjoyable for our entire family. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and kept us on fish all morning! The boat was well supplied with everything we needed, and we especially appreciated having a clean, easily accessible bathroom on board. It made the trip that much more comfortable for everyone. Beyond the fishing, we really enjoyed the conversation, learning more about the area, and just spending time together on the water. You could tell Wayne and Tyler genuinely wanted us to have a great experience, and they definitely delivered! We had so much fun and are already looking forward to coming back next year. Highly recommend this crew and can’t wait for our next trip! 🎣

This was our first time booking a fishing trip and won’t be our last. We were on the boat as a birthday present for my 8 year old. Cap was patient with the kids and helped them catch lots of fish! A wonderful time! Can’t wait to come back!
