Prime Rate Sportfishing Charters is based in Dennis, MA, and offers fishing trips from May-October. It's a family-owned and operated business that started 50 years ago. Captain Don taught his sons, Dave and Don Jr. everything he knew about fishing and passed on the helm to them. They have 40 years of experience and gladly share it with their guests. They run trips with friendliness that makes their guests feel welcome, and with expertise that makes their father proud.

Everything starts when you board a 35' T Jason boat that accommodates up to 6 guests. This spacious vessel has an enclosed cabin and a flybridge, if features a private toilet, and it's wheelchair accessible. The boat is also powered by a 450 HP Cummins engine and offers a swift and reliable ride, wherever you go.

Explore Cape Cod Bay with the experienced crew and target Bluefish, Striped Bass, and Cod. You'll mainly use trolling, deep-sea fishing, and jigging to catch these. You get to keep them within regulations after the trip and the crew will clean it for you.

Your fishing equipment is fully covered, including lures and live bait.

Prime Rate Sportfishing Charters wants you to enjoy your fishing experience whether it be your first time or you have been out several times. Their priorities are catching tasty fish and making your day enjoyable.

Your fishing equipment is fully covered, including lures and live bait.

Great time

Half Day Trip. Am or Pm on August 25, 2025 • 4 adults • 2 children

Captain Don and his deck hand are amazing! We have done multiple charters in the NE area and around the cape and Don keeps it fun and gets you on fish! This was our second time out with him and we will be back for sure! Cannot thank these guys enough for the memories!

We went out for a half day charter on the Prime Rate with Don and Gavin. Gavin was patient and kind with us and our kids. He was helpful and informative. Captain Don was knowledgeable and friendly and knew where to find the fish.
