Spend a memorable fishing day with Marcia B Sportfishing and explore the productive waters of Virginia Beach! Let Captain Kurt Ward take you where the fish hide and then it’s your time to shine on the rod. Your guide is a fishing tournament veteran and an expert in finding the catch and making sure it takes your bait.

You will head out to your fishing expedition on a 42’ Provincial that offers plenty of deck space where up to 6 people can fish at the same time. The vessel is rigged with a 450 HP Cummins engine and is a stable fishing platform.

There’s an enclosed toilet on board, along with indispensable gear like outriggers, a livewell, and navigational electronics. There’s more than enough space to relax in the shade when you want to take cover from the sun and take a break. Capt. Kurt will provide all the fishing equipment.

Virginia Beach waters are abundant in a variety of species, but Spanish Mackerel, Cobia, Redfish, small sharks, Flounder, and King Mackerel are the most frequent catches.

From the beginning of June until mid-September, you will be prowling the inshore waters for the best bite of the day. After you’re back to shore, you can get your catch cleaned and filleted for a small additional charge.

Kids are more than welcome to join your fishing expedition with Marcia B Sportfishing, and all ages can come aboard to enjoy these waters. Pack your snacks and drinks and Capt. Kurt will organize a successful and fun fishing trip to remember!

We only had time for a 4 hour trip, but it was absolutely worth it. They put us on some Spanish Mackerel and Bluefish that kept us busy. The captain and the 1st mate were top notch. They will have repeat business from us in the future! You can’t go wrong with these guys.

4 Hour - Half Day Trip (PM) on July 24, 2024

Captain Kurt is clearly an experienced angler. He is no-nonsense and a get-to-it kind of guy who knows exactly what he's doing. He located a school of red drum and we could have caught them endlessly as he continued to follow them. We had a fantastic time and everybody had their share of reeling in 30 pounders! After about an hour, my son wanted to fish for a shark so we took a different approach and he was more than willing to accommodate. We reeled in some bluefin and Spanish mackerel... If we ever decide to go back for a shark again we would go on the Marcia B!

We came from VT and went on our first deep sea fishing excursion; Captain Kurt was quick to answer all my questions prior to the trip. His deck hand, Luke was absolutely amazing-he answered all the questions we had while on the boat, helped my elderly mother walk, was all-around super pleasant! I would highly recommend taking this trip!!

angler's choice

The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.

I started fishing professionally at the age of 17 when I took a position on a sportfishing boat out of Hatteras and Virginia Beach. During my time of competitive fishing, I traveled all over the world, until settling into my own business as a commercial fisherman. With over 18 years of experience, I have gained a vast knowledge of the local waters from Virginia to North Carolina.
