Booked Capt. Rich and Osprey Fishing as a birthday present for my daughter and me. We’re both inexperienced anglers and I wanted her to be able to pull in some fish.
Man Capt. Rich was able to put us right on top of the fish and within minutes of our first cast my daughter was reeling in her first fish, and second and third etc.

The trip far exceeded my expectations and my daughter has not stopped talking about it. We will be booking again with Capt. Rich and Osprey Fishing.

I’ve been on a lot of private and party fishing trips and Captain Rich was by far the best out there. If you want an experience to learn how to fish, where to fish, how everything works, and how to use it this is the trip for you. He was super knowledgeable, friendly, and determined for us to catch more and more fish. We did catch and release but we must have pulled up 15 or so fish yesterday, 3 types of Catfish, Snakehead, Perch, and LM Bass. Thanks for a great day out!

Took my grandson (age10) on his first fishing trip. It was a great day weather wise and Captain Rich was more than accommodating teaching grandson about the different species of fish as well as things like the different tides, etc…Captain gave him very good direction on the proper ways to fish with the lures we were using and the grandson picked it up quickly. We started with catfish in the morning than went to shad in the afternoon. All total, the grandson caught 43 fish himself including 4 doubles of the shad. I would definitely recommend fishing with Captain Rich for his knowledge of fishing and his teaching skills with the younger fishing crowd. I’m sure it was a day my grandson will never forget or myself either.  A+

My buddy and I are mediocre fishermen. We learned by ourselves from the internet and YouTube. We wanted someone who could help us learn from our mistakes and the teach us the local area. Captain Rich was the perfect person to book because he is passionate about helping newbie and even advanced anglers how to become better fishermen.

He showed us a diverse range of techniques (ned rig, crankbaits, spinnerbaits, chatterbaits, neko rig, Florida rig, Blade baits), seasonal patterns and species patterns (catfish, shad, snakehead, largies and smallies). Not only did he say what to do, but WHY to do it, which is as important.

We walked away significantly better anglers. We also caught catfish, shad, and a couple largemouth on a day when no other boat we saw get a bite.

Looking forward to booking Osprey again in the future.

Rich loves to fish as much as you. We caught 84 fish and didn’t have (or want) to eat. We broke his previous record day of 71 fish. His equipment was in top-notch condition and his expertise first class. I’ve never experienced catching so many game size fish one after another all day long. Many boats and shoreline fisherman near us were wondering what the heck we had. The only difference was Rich. Sign up if you want a great fishing experience.
