Nothing beats a day on the water with your friends and family. And nothing beats the service you get when you're fishing with Columbia Sportfishing! Join Captain Marc and his crew and see what attracts so many people to this sport. It doesn't matter if you don't have lots of fishing experience, as you'll learn everything you need to know right on the spot.
You'll be fishing on a 43' custom-built boat. 'Columbia' has been sailing out of Rock Harbor since 1957. Same location, same owners. Many generations of family and friends have been fishing on the Columbia. It was built for Elmer Costa specifically for the charter industry: long and wide with a huge deck for landing the big ones, a dependable Detroit diesel engine that pushes the boat along at a comfortable speed, and a fully enclosed cabin for guests to stay out of the sun and rain.
Explore the inshore spots of Cape Cod Bay and target Striped Bass, Black Seabass, Tautog, and Bluefish. All fishing equipment and licenses are included in the price. You only need to bring your food and drinks for the day out.

This year marked our third in a row fishing on the Columbia - consistently a highlight of the summer for us! Caught plenty of stripers and Marc & Landon were great guides as always. Columbia remains a beautiful boat as well!
We had a great time! The Captain got us on the fish and the crew kept everything easy and smooth.
We had a great time with Captain Marc and first mate Chase. Both were very knowledgeable and able to answer any questions we threw their way. Once we got out on the bay it didn’t take long for us to start reeling them in one after another. We were having such a good time we all wished we could spend another full day on the boat. Highlight of this day out was all 3 of us catching a fish at the same time and Chase didn’t hesitate to take the picture for us. We are already planning our trip for next year!
We took a morning trip out to catch stripers with Captain Marc and first mate Chase (and cutie pup Nutmeg). They got out crew of 4 adults and two boys 9 and 7 out on the water and reels in the ocean on about 20 minutes. We caught almost 20 fish with 7 that were within the allowable size to keep. Excellent tips and help with the reels from Chase, he's a great first mate. We did a half day trip and came home with dinner for the night and then some. Can't recommend enough. Easy parking at the marina as well.
