Running angling trips out of East Moriches, Mahalo Charters invites you to check out the local fishery in style.

Capt. Nick will do his best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing. He will take you bottom fishing, drift fishing, jigging, popping, and spinning, all to get you on that bite. This involves 2 to 4-hour trips, mainly fishing for Scup, Seabass, Bass, Flounder, Weakfish, and Triggerfish, depending on the season and conditions on the day.

You'll be fishing from a 28' Groverbuilt boat with enough room for up to 6 anglers at any single time. It also includes a toilet and an ice box.

When it comes to rods, reels, and terminal tackle, everything you need is included in the price. No need to worry about fishing licenses, as they will be provided and handled by the charter.

You can keep anything you catch, as long as it's legal to do so.

You'll find free water bottles on the boat for your convenience, but you're always welcome to pack your own drinks and snacks should you want to.

This is a children-friendly charter, so you're welcome to bring your kids on for a fun fishing adventure.

Book your trip now and hit the water with Mahalo Charters.

    High Volume of Fish

    4 Hour Trip (AM) – Saturday on August 3, 2024 • 5 adults • 2 children

    What was just supposed to be a nice fishing trip with our Dad and sons turned out to be a story our kids can talk about for awhile. Captain Nick was on fire with finding the fishing spots. Not only did we pull a ton of fish, we almost maxed out on the amount of keepers. He was great with our kids and was very involved in assisting the entire time. Would highly recommend him to any group.

    Half Day with Captain Nick

    4 Hour Trip (PM) – Saturday on June 17, 2023 • 2 adults

    Had a great morning with Captain Nick on Moriches bay. Water temps were low and fishing was slow. Captain Nick still got us on top of fish with 2 keeper flukes and than wrapped up the morning some clamming. Thank you for a great trip and I look forward to fishing with you again later this season!

I have been on my boats my entire life. I started working on a charter boat at the age of 15 and immediately knew that this was what I wanted to do. After acquiring my 100-ton Masters Captains License at the age of 19 I was determined to have a boat of my own someday. I always had a love for Groverbuilt boats so I set out to find one. Finally, at the age of 26, I was able to purchase Mahalo. I have spent 2 years restoring her and I am thrilled to finally be able to share my love of fishing and the water with others.
