Whether you’re beginners looking to learn, veteran anglers looking to catch, or a family just looking for a day on the water, you’re sure to enjoy your experience.

Jump on the comfortable 31’ JC downeast boat that accommodates up to 4 anglers with ease. Upgraded with the latest electronics to keep you safe and get you on the fish faster. The boat also has a full toilet for your comfort.
Ben customizes the trip for you, based on your experience level and what you want to catch. Stay inshore to cast at blitzing Striped Bass and False Albacore with light spinning tackle, drag baits on the bottom for Fluke, or load up on Porgies, Cod, and Sea Bass. You can head offshore to chum for Sharks as well as troll or jig and pop for Tuna and Mahi Mahi. Fishing tackle will always be provided but feel free to bring your own. Whatever you like this trip is based around your interest.
If you decide to keep your catch at the end of the day the crew will be happy to fillet and bag it up for you to take home for dinner!
Push the Limit also offers specialized night Bass trips. These offer anglers of all experience levels a chance to get out after dark and tangle with Striped Bass in the 25-50 pound range. Anglers will use a mixture of live and artificial baits to get the bite. Night Bass trips are based strictly around the tide and may leave any time between sunset and sunrise.
On all trips anglers should bring their own snacks and drinks. It is also recommended they bring proper sun protection and footwear. Come enjoy a day out on the water in Montauk with the experienced crew at Push the Limit Sportfishing.

Great day -- 5 species caught!
Ben had us catching fish casting on the surface for hours. He is super knowledgable and grew up there so knows his stuff. He is friendly, helpful, patient and creates a fun vibe.

Great Day in Montauk
These guys work hard to put you on fish. Capt Darrell and mate were extremely friendly and more than willing to do what it took to ensure we had a great experience. Knew the area we were fishing very well- great equipment to see the fish and know what to fish. Equipment was rigged properly and in ready to go condition anytime we changed the plan. A lot of fun!

Full Day Offshore Trip (4 Max)
Full Day Trip with Captain Ben
We had an awesome fishing trip with Captain Ben and his first mate Nick! We must have seen over 30 whales and over 100 dolphins — better than any whale watching trip you could purchase. To make an amazing trip even better we were able to catch several beautiful yellowfin tuna and false albacores that still get your adrenaline pumping and give an exceptional fight for their size even on state of the art tuna gear! The crew was exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable and made the experience top notch. The best thing about Captain Ben was the fact that he wasn’t afraid to be different than the other Captains around us. The majority of other Captains were only attempting to jig and seemingly were having little luck so he kept us trolling with only a small attempt at jigging and with this choice he was able to keep us more consistently on the fish then the other boats around us. I will definitely be booking again! Thank you!!
