Jacked Up Sportfishing is looking to put you on a comfortable, family-friendly, yet competitive day on the water. From inshore reefs and wrecks to the deep blue, it wants you to make memories that will last a lifetime. Join Captain Nick Skidmore in Ocean City, MD and embark on a beautiful journey on the water.

Your captain will be behind the wheel of a powerful 45’ Ocean offshore sport fishing boat. Running on a twin 485 HP Scania commercial engine, it will take you to your destinations in no time. The boat’s equipped with modern navigation systems, outriggers, and a fighting chair. The onboard amenities you can use include air conditioning, a refrigerator, and an ice-box. The boat’s got a kitchen, toilet, shower, and bed, as well as a flybridge. For any needed assistance, you can always turn to the first mate.

The waters you’ll be exploring are home to many interesting species, such as Tuna, Shark, Mahi Mahi, Amberjack, Marlin, and Black Seabass. You can use both light and heavy tackle to fish, with bottom fishing, deep sea fishing, trolling, spinning, jigging, and popping all available to you to try out. Feel free to bring your kids with you and create a wonderful outing with the whole family. You can choose whether you want to keep your catch or release it. In case you keep it, Captain Nick will clean and fillet it free of charge.

The captain will cover you for the rods, reels, tackle, and lures. Live bait is also available on request. He’ll also provide you with licenses, so the only thing you’ll need to bring is your favorite food and drinks.

Book a trip and join Captain Nick on lovely a trip across the waters of Maryland!
