Great trip!
3 Hour Trip - Inshore - 11am to 2pm on July 29, 20252 adults2 children

A friend recommended Someday Came Fishing Charters, he having had a great time with his son. My son and his family were visiting so I booked a trip for him, his father-in-law and two of his young children. The trip was a great success! Lots of fish caught (striped bass, flute and some bluefish). The children had great fun and lots of help. Now I have to eat fish for a week! Highly recommended.

Captain Brad has been on the water since 4 years of age. He loves being on the water and sharing the knowledge and experience of fishing. As a child, he said that 'someday' he would get his captain's license and a boat worthy of being a charter boat here on Long Island, NY. 'Someday' came over 20 years ago and the captain is still passionate about what he does.
