4 Hour Trip – Striped Bass (AM) on May 20, 20243 adults
Scheduled the trip about 6 weeks in advance for my daughter’s 31st b-day. Weather was not good the entire week prior to the trip but was beautiful the day of the trip. The crew worked hard to find fish and try different ways to catch them. My daughter brought in a 20lb striped bass thanks to the hard work of the crew and made her birthday wish come true. Later in the trip she landed a 7 pound bluefish. Thank you Captain Ray and Mate Vinny!

We booked this for our son who wants to learn everything and anything capt Joe and his crew were top notch, professional, accommodating teaching a 13 year old just starting out that’s more then we expected but the icing on the cake was Tyler reeled in a 48lbs striper and made a memory of a lifetime. We will be back and everyone should book with chasing tails !!!

Striped Bass Morning Trip
4 Hour Trip – Striped Bass (AM) on June 2, 20241 adult
Went out for a morning trip with Cpt Ray and First Mate Vinny targeting striped bass. After a slower morning in the bay, the guys made the choice to head out in search for trophy bass and did not disappoint. Easily the biggest striped bass I have ever caught. Overall great guys to hang on the water with and very knowledgeable. Would recommend to anyone to book!
