City by the Sea Charters
Enjoy beautiful nature, have fun chasing fish, and make memories together with City by the Sea Charters. Based out of Newport, Rhode Island, Captain Patrick Heaney runs inshore, nearshore, and offshore fishing trips. He invites you to his recently restored and well-equipped boat to explore this beautiful area full of various prized species you can catch. Book today and have a wonderful day on the water with City by the Sea Charters!
Your adventure starts on a 38’ Young Brothers downeast boat that can safely and comfortably take up to 6 guests. Thanks to its 385 HP Volvo engine, you’ll reach the fishing grounds in no time. Apart from extensive navigation electronics, the boat features a livewell and ice-box. You can use all the onboard facilities, which include a private toilet and kitchen.
You and the crew will go after Bluefin Tuna, Black Seabass, Bluefish, Cod, and Striped Bass. You can chase them by bottom fishing, spinning, and jigging on light tackle. The fish you catch is yours to keep. If you’d prefer to release it, you’re free to do so.
Captain Patrick takes care of rods, reels, tackle, licenses, and catch cleaning, as well as snacks and drinks. Bait isn’t included in the trip, so make sure to check with the captain what your options are.
City by the Sea Charters is waiting for you, hop aboard and make memories in Rhode Island!

highly recommend!
From booking through getting off the boat after a great day of fishing, Captain Pat and Joe were great And better in several ways than other fishing charters we had been on in the past. First Mate Joe was fabulous and even gave us an added benefit of history of landmarks while we were heading out to fish. The boat was extremely clean and the equipment was very well maintained and we had a perfect day on this charter! We will be back for another trip and they are a great choice to plan your trip with! Even excellent at communicating all the way until we got on the boat and got off the boat~ Five shiny stars to them 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Great trip
Took my seventeen year old daughter out with Patrick and Josef. They picked us up right at the dock or our motel. And took the fifteen minutes ride out to the grounds. Caught 8 with the largest striped bass near 30 lbs. Patrick and Joseph did an amazing job. They were knowledgeable and patient. I will go out with them again.
