Anglerfish Guides

Explore the waters around the historic Boston Harbor with Anglerfish Guides! Captain Tim is a lifelong angler and a professional fishing guide. He tends to spend nearly every day on the water and thousands of people shared some of the fishing action on board with him. For some, he found perfect fishing spots that got them a new trophy, while for the others, he taught them how to use the equipment and catch their first fish.

You’ll be fishing on a 25’ Pro Line boat that accommodates up to 4 guests. This center console is powered by a 300 HP Yamaha engine and reaches a speed of 30 knots. She’s perfect for light tackle and fly fishing, as she offers a safe and reliable ride at all times. The boat features the latest Lowrance electronics, a live bait tank, and tuna tubes.

Boston Harbor is considered to be the Flounder capital of the world, so you can count on catching any of these tasty bottom dwellers. If you prefer a target that puts more fight, don’t forget that the area is also a paradise for Striped Bass. You can go after Bluefish and Porgy as well. You get to keep some of your catch but the release is encouraged and preferred.

All fishing equipment and licenses are included in the price. You only need to pack some food and drinks for the day.

Anglers of all skill levels and ages are welcome to join. It’s all about making a memorable day on the water for you and your loved ones. Join the Anglerfish Guides crew that has thousands of fishing hours and lots of tips to share with you.

Angler's Choice
The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.
Fishing has always been my favorite thing. I have a picture of me in a stroller holding a Trout, so literally have been fishing longer than I can remember. Fishing is a lifelong pursuit - the more you know, the more you have to learn. I began fishing the waters of Central PA and vacationing in Ocean City MD and the Outer Banks. I then moved to State College and fly-fished the amazing surrounding trout streams daily. I moved to Boston in ‘05 and have been fishing the Harbor since my 2nd day here.
