Montauk has a fish with your name on it, so let Charter Boat Windy help you catch it! Captain John will be your guide, which allows you to benefit from years of angling experience.

Striped Bass, Yellowfin Tuna, Flounder, Bluefin Tuna, Bluefish, Blue Shark, Thresher Shark, Black Seabass, Cod, and more inhabit these waters, depending on the time of year.

On these trips, you can expect to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.

Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Also remember to bring snacks so that nobody gets cranky on an empty belly!

You'll find yourself aboard a 40' Downeast with room for 6 passengers. It has outriggers, downriggers, a fighting chair, and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. What's more, this vessel is wheelchair accessible.

Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. Live bait is available, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

You'll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.

The charter boat covers your fishing license, just show up ready for a good time! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.

A few items to bring include sunscreen (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

    Did 1/2 day Sea Bass and 1 day Tuna/Sea bass

    Extended Day Trip – Tuna on June 8, 2024

    We booked Windy Charters as they were recommended to us by Friends. And they DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! John our captain was Excellent and was very focused on getting us fish, which he did well. And Mike his Mate is the hardest working Mate I have ever met. We caught lots of sea Bass and Blue fish and then went for Tuna. When we hooked up to a Monster Tuna and fought it for over 5 hrs Mike never left our side and John (Captain) kept the boat squared up to the fish all the time, These two are hard core fishermen and were absolutely awesome! I HIGHLY reccommend them... You will not be disappointed. I have done many Charters and these two guys where by far the best! Will see you again.

    Early Father’s Day

    Full Day trip – Inshore on June 10, 2023

    Captain John and his Crew were amazing! They helped the beginner fishers and provided clear instruction on how to use the rods. They were responsive and helpful when the beginners tangled up their lines. Heading out with Captain John is a guarantee catch. Crew cleans the fish however you want and all I can say is I am always content with everything that the Windy has to provide.

    Half day trip with Captain John

    Half Day Trip on July 12, 2023 • 5 adults • 1 child

    What a great day on the water with Captain John. He knew exactly where the fish were. We caught large porgies and Sea Bass, porgies were plenty! Boat was comfortable with plenty of room and the crew were fun to fish with. Will be trying an overnighter next time!!!!!

    Fishing trip in October

    Half Day Trip on October 13, 2022

    I've gone fishing on the Windy many times. On the last trip, my Dad and I caught the biggest striped bass we had ever caught. Captain John and his mate Chris always make it a fantastic day and we always have more fish than we know what to do with. I highly recommend booking with them.

    Great day on the water

    Half Day Trip - 12:00 PM on November 23, 2025 • 4 adults

    Capt John and his first mate were great. Took us to the spots where the fish were. Went out with my wife, daughter and son in law. They were very helpful with my wife. The only regret of the day was my wife caught more fish then me. I’ll never hear rhe end of it. I would highly recommend.

    June fishing trip

    Extended Day Trip – Tuna on June 19, 2024

    John and Mike are hands down the best in the business. Never in the last decade have I left without a cooler full and an experience of a lifetime. Recently brought my son who is visually impaired they accommodated accordingly and made it such a wonderful time for all that were on board. John knows the waters unlike anyone I’ve ever met and is a true Captain always ready always courteous all around a great time every time. I will be on the Windy for the rest of my life without a doubt.
