    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!

Angler's Choice
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.
