Schooled up Charters is the premiere Light tackle guide service for Chesapeake Beach. We offer something for everyone. From world class experiences for "Hard core" anglers to family trips!

Captain Travis is a local to Chesapeake Beach and a experienced angler. This charter covers the inshore area of the Chesapeake Bay. And as a school teacher he has all the patience in the world for children and loves to run family trips.

You’ll be exploring the local waters on board the locally built Judge Yachts center console. She’s spacious enough to take on groups of up to 6 guests per trip. It also boasts the latest fish finding equipment too, so you know you’re in good hands.

Additionally, the charter covers your Maryland fishing license. You can bring your own snacks and water and, if you get lucky, you’ll get to keep your prized catch. What’s more, the crew will help you with the cleaning!

We use only the highest quality fishing rods and reels as well as tackle! No need to bring any gear on board. Just bring your food and drink. We have a iced cooler on board for your food/drink too!

Great family outing

4 Hour Family Fun Trip PM on August 10, 2025 • 2 adults • 2 children

We just got back from an afternoon of fishing with Travis and his son Nick. We are a family with a preteen and elementary schooler and this may be the highlight of the summer for them. Travis took us to great spots where the kids could catch a lot of fish quickly (and I mean a lot). It was great action for two kids who had never fished before. He then took a shot and they both ended up catching a large bass each. Nick was also great with the boys, helping them every step of the way. Both Travis and Nick have a great way with kids. They have now made two more fishermen! I cannot recommend Schooled Up enough.

fantastic trip

1/2 day Light Tackle Trip - 2:00 PM on November 8, 2025 • 2 adults • 1 child

Took my 11 year old son out for a birthday fishing trip. Captain Long communicated with us really well leading up to the trip. During the trip he was super informed and coached us through how to hook stripers. Very patient with my son and made sure we all had a great time. Pretty sure we caught more fish than any other boat that day, too, probably around 30. Great trip, will definitely do it again!

Amazing!

1/2 day Light Tackle Trip - 2:00 PM on March 15, 2025 • 6 adults

Planned a last minute trip for my son’s birthday, and we had a blast. We were worried about bad weather and driving 2.5 hours but Travis had amazing communication the whole time and kept us all up to date! There were 6 of us and we had all caught a good amount of fish. Travis was very informative and he wanted to make sure we all caught something and had a great time. We’ve been on a few other fishing trips before but this one was unforgettable. You can tell he has a passion for this and isn’t just in it for a “pay check” 110% recommend Travis, and my kids are already asking to do it again!

Best Experience!!!

4 Hour Family Fun Trip AM on August 30, 2025 • 5 adults • 1 child

Travis should be your go to if you're looking for a smooth day on the water with new or experience fishers. We were a group of 6, he was patience, explained everything in depth, suggested certain locations for better catch opportunity, due to the time of year, etc. My 11y/o had a blast & we caught a lot of fish. I Would definitely continue to book any future fishing trips with his charter.

Great Fishing trip!

Kids Trip AM on September 7, 2025 • 2 adults • 3 children

We really enjoyed our trip with Captain Travis! He was very accommodating and tried his best to work around the weather but it he weather had other plans. Despite the weather we still had a great trip! Captain Travis took his time with us and educated us on how to fish and the different types of fish we were catching. Would highly recommend Schooled Up Fishing Charter!
