Captain Peter Stassi is the man behind Sea Venture “The Canyon Specialist”, and he has one motto that’s the driving force behind his charter: “Life is short…Fish hard!” Check his Monthly Fishing Reports.
Plain and simple, there’s no substitute for experience. Capt. Peter has spent over 45 years fishing the waters all around Shinnecock and Montauk. He’s a full-time captain who has devoted a lifetime to canyon and inshore Sportfishing. He offers a variety of exciting angling adventures, from inshore trips targeting trophy Striped Bass, Bluefish, and Doormat Fluke, to multi-day offshore adventures that explore deep into the Canyons. He will have you Trolling, Chunking, and jig for huge Blue and Yellow fin Tuna. Reeling in Marlin, Wahoo, and Sharks to name just a few!
Naturally, a top-of-the-line fishing machine is of the utmost importance. To meet this requirement Capt. Peter chose the Custom 40’ Topaz Royale Express Sport Fisherman. She features plenty of deck space for up to 6 guests, the latest navigational and safety gear, a clean private toilet, a stateroom with beds, and a dinette for those overnight trips (maximum 4 guests for overnight trips). Most of all, she is fast!
Capt. Peter specializes in offshore trips that explore all the Northeast Canyons, from Veatch to the Hudson Canyon. On these trips, you’ll travel anywhere from 25 miles to 100+ miles out. Expect to battle huge big game such as Big Eye, and Yellow fin Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Marlin, Wahoo, and more.

3 Hour Trip - Inshore on July 20, 2024
We went out and booked a last minute trip. Pete and the crew were excellent. They made sure they got us on to the fish right away and we all caught plenty of fish. If they stopped biting he was quick to move us to get us on the bite again. The boat was clean and his crew was fantastic. Great trip and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great trip.

From the first point of contact Captain Peter and his team were top notch . The coordination and planning of the trip was very easy and my 8 year old son had a amazing time on his first fishing charter. The captain and mate took fantastic care of my son and we landed some nice fish including two fluke to take home during the afternoon which isnt always easy for bay fishing. We had such a great time we booked another trip before our charter ended. Looking forward to the next charter with Capt Peter and crew.
