RBO Saltwater Fishing Charters

It’s time to book a fishing trip on the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries with Reel Blonde Outdoors Fishing Charters. Captain Stuart or Captain Cole will run your trip, striving to provide excellent service and put you on fish.

Expect to target multiple saltwater fish, including Cobia, Drum, Flounder, Spades, Mackerel, and more! Your captain will guide you with all the knowledge you can learn while putting you on fish.

Spend the day on the 25’ Southern Cross center console. There is plenty of space to walk around the whole boat, shade, a sight fishing tower, and a flybridge. This will give you the extra edge when hunting down your prey. They also have spray curtains for colder days. As well as multiple coolers on board.

You can fish in the Chesapeake Bay, the coastal Atlantic ocean, or its tributaries. Also included in the price are the conventional rods and reels and bow fishing equipment. Talk to the captain before the trip if you wish to bow fish. The fishing license for the whole group is also provided. Children over 5 are welcome on board. If you don’t have children’s life vests, the captain will have them available.

You’ll need to bring your own food and drink, which can go into the captain’s cooler on board. Pack your shades, sunscreen, and a hat, and you’re ready. Book a trip with Reel Blonde Outdoors fishing charters today for an unforgettable day out.

You can’t catch ‘em from the couch!

I'm Captain Stuart, the owner of Reel Blonde Charters. Captain Coleson John Pokorny, or me, run the charter trips, always hoping to exceed your expectations. In 2018 I decided to follow my dream of running a charter business, and the dream became a reality. I prize my business in being versatile in order to accommodate the customer's preferred target species and type of fishing they want to do, as long as Mother Nature cooperates! I keep my boat on the trailer, so I have the ability to go to different locations, so we can still fish somewhere if the weather doesn’t cooperate with the original plan. I am a firefighter/paramedic, so I will give a discount to any fellow firefighters/EMS and police. I do occasionally bring my yellow lab Nelli on trips. She is extremely friendly and loveable!
