Your boat for the day is a nicely kept 32' BHM Downeast, with room for up to 6 anglers.

The boat also features downriggers, a livewell, and an ice-box.
You and the captain will go after Bluefin Tuna, Spanish Mackerel, Herring, Striped Bass, as well as Bluefish. You'll attract them by deep sea fishing, trolling, jigging, and even kite fishing. You can keep the fish you catch and take it home.Kids are welcome to come aboard, just tell the captain how many will be coming so he can prepare enough safety jackets.

Our trips are priced for 4 guests and we are licensed for 6. Additional person $50 per trip for half day trip, $100 for the entire day.

Note: available For sundown cruises, fishing is an option during it .
It's more of a slow boat ride close to dock around the lighthouses and seal colonies, great for conversations contact for details . Fishing for whatever is permitted . Giant Tuna available anytime when fish are within reach of northern side of cape cod

    Amazing experience with the Odyssey

    Half Day fishingTrip – Inshore (AM) on August 20, 2026 • 1 adult

    Sorry, this will be long winded. My husband had the most incredible fishing excursion with Cpt Wilkins, and he can’t say enough great things about the experience. he said, from the moment he stepped aboard the Odyssey, it was clear he was in the hands of someone who not only knows the ocean but truly loves it. Cpt Wilkins’ attention to detail and expert knowledge made his trip memorable. Cpt Wilkins was highly recommended from a friend. and i can see why. He isn’t just a highly respected professional, he’s a true fisherman with extensive experience, passion, and a genuine love for the environment and sustainability. My husband has been on fishing trips before, but he could immediately tell that Cpt Wilkins does this from the heart, not just for the business. That kind of dedication shows in everything he does. He caught so many fish that he’s still smiling like a kid on Christmas morning. the entire experience was unforgettable. Cpt Wilkins, thank you!! We will absolutely be back next year!

    Awesome half day!

    Half Day fishingTrip – Inshore (AM) on June 29, 2026 • 6 adults

    We had a great day on the water with Ralph! This was our first experience fishing on the ocean and Ralph educated us the whole time and was very patient. We couldn’t have asked for a better day. The kids and I took turns reeling them in and caught 17 fish in our 4 hours on the water! We drove from Mashpee just to fish with Ralph because of his excellent reviews and he did not disappoint. He even bled and filleted the striped bass that was small enough so that we could cook it that night. It’s a pity that there are such tigh parameters on the size of the fish you can keep because we caught some real beauties! I am so glad that we chose a professional fisherman for our adventure!

    A little wind didnt stop The Odysea!

    Half Day fishingTrip – Inshore (PM) on June 20, 2026 • 4 adults

    Family of four here, and we were able to book the trip on short notice after being canceled on by another Captain due to wind. Captain Ralph is the real deal! We stayed in the bay to avoid the wind, and he had us on Striper almost immediately! Caught our limit along with a nice blue fish before motoring over to locate the seals on the sandbar. Spent the rest of the trip just off the point doing short drifts in shallower water where Captain Ralph put us on some Mackerel to round out the trip. Our 9 and 7 year old sons had a blast, asking lots of questions that Captain Ralph was happy to answer, and with his help they were on there way to being great mates the whole trip!

    Had a great time with Captain Ralph

    Half Day fishingTrip – Inshore (AM) on June 25, 2026 • 2 adults

    Had a great time on the FV Odysea. Captain Ralph was very knowledgeable and with many years of experience of fishing and the area made it a great day. Both myself and my son in law had an awesome time. Captain Ralph put us on the fish and we caught several, but had to throw a few back due to size limits. I would recommend this captain and fishing vessel to everyone. We plan on booking again with Captain Ralph next year.

    Capt Ralph of the Odysea is the best.

    Half Day fishingTrip – Inshore (AM) on August 4, 2026 • 5 adults • 1 child

    Capt Ralph of thei Odysea in Provincetown is the best. He brought 5 of us to the fish. We caught 5 slot sized stripers and 2 oversized on a half day trip. Ralph worked his butt off taking great care of us. VERY HIGHLY RECCOMMENDED.

Best Experience for my 4 year old
Half Day fishingTrip – Inshore (PM) on June 7, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

Ralph is great, he and the boat nothing fancy but clearly has spent a long time honing his craft. He was great with my kid and even entertained my father in law. Ralph persisted with us to get my kid on fish even though the interest when it came down to it was waning for him. Ralph still managed to get him involved. We had to go to several spots to find anything this early in the season but again, Ralph persisted and we found our target species. Overall a great day, great stories and memories. Highly recommend Ralph for a stellar fishing experience.

Phenomenal Trip
Half Day fishingTrip – Inshore (AM) on August 9, 2026 • 3 adults

I went out with my dad and my college buddy just looking to have a good time. Captain Ralph blew us out of the water. We were pulling up multiple macrel at once. A few times I couldnt get my line back to the bottom before another fish was on the line. But honestly it would have been a blast even if we didnt catch anything! We saw huge whales, multiple pods of porpoises and seals sunning themselves on the beach. Captain Ralph was super friendly, accomodating, knowledgable, and just all around a good dude.

Response from Captain

appreciate that guys ! was my pleasure to make a memory for yous !
