Maverick Charters has been fishing the coastal and offshore waters of Rhode Island for over 30 years. They specialize in Shark Fishing and afternoon drifts across the reefs. You only have time for a few hours on the water? Not a problem. Whether it’s a few-hour inshore trip or a 10-hour journey offshore, Captain Michael Chatowsky will make sure you have a great fishing experience. Join him in Narragansett and have lots of fun fishing!

You’ll be fishing from a 38’ Topaz Express.  The boat can accommodate 6 guests, runs on twin 430 HP Volvo Diesels, and uses GPS, fishfinder, radio as well as radar technology that will help you have a safe and quick trip to the fish and back. In case you need it, there’s also a portable toilet you can use.

The species you’ll target include Shark, Black Seabass, Atlantic Mackerel, Flounder, Tautog, Scup, Yellowfin Tuna, and more. You’ll attract them using bottom fishing, trolling, spinning, jigging, popping, as well as drift fishing. You can keep or release the fish you catch and you’re welcome to bring kids on your trip.

Captain Michael will take care of all the fishing tackle, live bait, lures, licenses, as well as catch cleaning and filleting. Yours is just to bring the food and drinks of your choice.

Spend a day in Narragansett and have a great time fishing with Maverick Charters!
