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.

6 Hour Trip
We had the best time! We caught a ton of fish and had plenty to take home! Captain Chris was great at showing our son how to do it all! We really appreciated that and Jeff was amazing! They were both great and made sure we had a wonderful time! The boat was super clean, had an indoor place to sit if you wanted, an area to get out of the shade and a bathroom! We couldn’t have had a better day! Thank you, Captain Chris and Jeff!

8 Hour Trip (AM)
I would absolutely recommend Shooter Dog! Capt. Chris got us on the bite right from the start and it kept going all day! Deckhand Tommy is on point. We didn’t have to worry about a thing in regard to tackle and equipment. These guys attend to everything to ensure your trip is what you are hoping for… both are welcoming and a great sense of humor. If we come back next year… Shooter Dog will be our first stop!

4 Hour Trip – Shark
We had an amazing trip out on the water. We caught 2 huge sharks that my 13 year old son and 16 year old daughter each reeled in on their own. An 8 foot and 9 foot shark weighing between 275-300 pounds each. Memories for a lifetime. Thank you.

We had a fantastic time. Both the captain and first mate went above and beyond. We’ve booked other charters in the past but Shooter was the best! Thank you Captain Chris! We will be back!
