Lewes has a fish with your name on it, so let Shooter Dog Fishing Charters help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Chris can tell you all about the local fishery.

Shooter Dog Fishing Charters specializes in offshore Flounder, Black Sea Bass, Tautog, and Striped Bass. On these trips, it's common to troll and bottom fish using light tackle. 

Your adventure begins aboard the 'Shooter Dog,' a 46' Downeast that can carry up to 6 passengers. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Rods, reels, and tackle are covered by the charter, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

There will be a First Mate on board to help your trip run smoothly. Mates often work for tips, and it's customary to offer them a 10–20% tip. There's no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time!

Kids are welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available. It's recommended to bring snacks, drinks, sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor and glass bottles.

And that's it! Your fishing trip with Shooter Dog Fishing Charters is just a click away.

Best Fishing Trip Ever!
8 Hour Trip (AM) on June 13, 20264 adults2 children

Captain Chris and mate Jeff are very friendly and great at what they do. They made sure we were catching fish all day long with no dry spells. Between the six of us, we caught around 300 sea bass and a few flounder. We were able to take home at least a dozen fish that met the size requirements. The boat was very nice and extremely clean. It was a family-friendly trip— even if you’re not an experienced fisherman, you’ll have a lot of fun and catch plenty of fish.

6 Hour Trip on August 8, 20266 adults

First mate had everything ready for us and captain took us to a great spot. Started pulling in fish as soon as we put out the reels. Black sea bass and flounder. Really cool experience just wish i had taken seasickness precautions cause a few of us were struggling.

I'm 49 years old and have been fishing the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries since I was a kid. I have fished in professional Bass tournaments nationwide and enjoy taking people fishing.
