Sea-N-Stripes Guide Service invites you to check out the local fishery in style.

Capt. Chip will do his best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing. He specializes in light tackle, heavy tackle, and trolling, all to get you on that bite. This involves 5 to 6-hour trips, mainly fishing for striped bass, depending on the season and conditions on the day.

You’ll be fishing from a 25’ Starcraft boat with enough room for up to 6 anglers at any single time. It also includes an ice box and a wireless trolling motor.

The price of your trip includes all the rods, reels, and terminal tackle you’ll need for a productive day on the water.

Don’t forget to buy a fishing license before the trip!

You can keep anything you catch, as long as it’s legal to do so.

Up for a family trip? This is a children-friendly business, so bring your loved ones to share these memories with.

Book your trip now and hit the water with Sea-N-Stripes Guide Service.

Chip made sure both my teenage son and octogenarian father in law were safe, comfortable, and having a good time even with chilly and wet conditions. And, we got to catch our first striper! We will be back to try out crappie fishing sometime in the future.

I've been chasing Striped Bass for over 24 years. I caught my first one at age 16 and haven't stopped. I've fished for pleasure for years but have always enjoyed putting others on fish. Seeing someone who has never caught a fish smile is the same as watching seasoned anglers catch their biggest. Being part of that experience is what drove me to become a professional angler.
