    Conditions are sensitive but when the stars come together, Maryland is home to some of the best Cobia fishing on the planet. The crew lives for this time of the year. Here’s a summary of a typical day. Depart at first light and run down the bay at blistering speed till you're in the area. You'll get on the front casting deck waiting for the crew to call out a fish. You cast, work the bait, then BAM! Fish on! That’s what sight fishing for giant Cobia, Redfish, and Trout is all about. Captain's favorite!

The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.
Fishing and guiding have been a family business for decades. Laura’s father was one of the first bass fishing guides on Lake Anna Va. Her father help found the Potomac River Bass Club. Laura was catching bass and running offshore chasing marlin and dauphin her whole childhood. Rex grew up helping out with the family waterfowl outfitting business in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, North Dakota and Maryland. Rex’s grandfather had him fishing as soon as he could hold a fishing rod and he has been fishing inshore and offshore as much as he can. Moving to Chesapeake Beach in 2013 made fishing the bay an almost daily addiction! We love to fly fish and light tackle fish for all the great fish the bay has to offer. Bottom fishing for the abundant spot and perch is always fun with the kids and folks looking for great fish to eat. Teaching a first-time angler or having an experienced fly caster on the bow, Rock On Charters will do it all . If you are and experienced angler looking for trophy rockfish, red fish, cobia, or just want to have fun doing catch and release or take some great Chesapeake Bay Spot, Crocker or Perch home Our team will work hard to ensure you have a safe and enjoyable day on the water.

The Rock on Report Middle Bay Fishing. Rockfish are BACK!! Bluefish ..some really nice ones also!! Few Mackerel ..not like last year. Stripers AKA “Rockfish” They are HERE ..or back from hanging out where ever they have been all summer….Same as last week.. Lots of charter boats live lining and trolling, we have been doing top water EARLY and also doing some live lining on structure. Had some small breaking “schoolie” rockfish under birds this week. Perch Have not been targeting them as of late. But are getting them when we are trying for spot for live lining. Spot Catching all size spots. But, like the perch deeper water. The “rockfish candy” size are still being caught a ton, but some good eating sizes were coming in the boat. BLUEFISH ARE HERE IN FORCE. They are hitting metal and live lining works great. G-EYE jig RAIN MINNOW 1oz PINK and Silver Sparkle working great. “MACS” are here finally! But not in force as in years past. We are seeing some breaking blues in the PM on structure .. Speckled Trout. None this week but paddle tails work the best. Cobia and Redfish Nothing that we have seem. But are hearing some are being seen around the Choptank.
