Captain Cook Charters

Captain Cook Charters is located in Warwick and offers to show you a memorable time in the rich waters of Narragansett Bay.

Captain Donald Cook will do his best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing. He specializes in light tackle action, so expect to try bottom fishing, trolling, drift fishing, and spinning – all to get you on that bite. This involves 4-hour trips, mainly fishing for Seabass, Flounder, Bluefish, Bass, and Scup, depending on the season and conditions on the day.

Your adventure begins on board a 29’ Blackfin Combi sportfishing boat that can fit 4 anglers very comfortably and up to 6 people by special request. The boat is fitted with a toilet, so you won’t have to worry about getting caught short. Meanwhile, all the rods, reels, and terminal tackle you need are included in the price.

As for fishing licenses, everything will be taken care of by the captain so you don’t have to worry about it, and the price of your trip also includes complimentary snacks and drinks. Of course, you’re welcome to bring your own. Please let the captain know if you have any questions or special requests.

This is a children-friendly charter, so you can bring the kids on for a fun fishing adventure. At the end of your trip, you’ll get to keep your catch to take home for dinner – just don’t forget to bring an ice box to keep it fresh. But unfortunately, I am unable to provide fish cleaning services, so all fish that are taken home most be whole.

I started out on the Block Island ferries and transitioned to tugs and barges. I have been a tugboat captain for 35+ years and retired in 2021. I have fished recreationally all my life and always wanted to run a charter boat.
