Liveliner Sportfishing invites you aboard to experience Cape Cod like a local! Capt. Russell Peterson has been running boat charters out of Chatham, Massachusetts since 1988 and he’s eager to make your trip an enjoyable and rewarding experience while on the Cape. With over 30 years of fishing under his belt and USCG certification, you’ll have a safe and productive trip full of fun. The captain will use his vast knowledge of the area to make your trip a huge success!
Capt. Russell’s boat is docked at Stage Harbor in Chatham in order to easily access Cape Cod’s inshore and offshore waters. This modern and well-equipped 28’ Grady White offshore sport fishing boat will get you to the fish in no time. The boat is powered by twin 150 HP Honda engines and rigged with extensive navigation technology. It features a portable toilet, bed, ice-box, refrigerator, and various fishing gear that will make your experience even better. Up to 6 guests may come aboard.
You and the captain will target Striped Bass, Tuna, Bluefish, Shark, Fluke, Black Seabass, Atlantic Mackerel, Skate, and Bonito. To attract your prey, you can bottom fish, deep sea fish, troll, spin, jig, pop, drift fish, and even bow fish – all on heavy tackle.
The fishing tackle, live bait, lures, and catch cleaning are all included in the trip price. Just bring some snacks, drinks before you come aboard.
No matter if you’re a seasoned angler looking to fish some of the most productive Tuna grounds in the northeast, or a family out for a day of Striper fishing fun, Liveliner Sportfishing guarantees a great day out on the water.
The captain accepts cash, checks and Venmo as payment methods in person while on the boat.

6 Hour Trip
Captain was extremely nice and friendly. He immediately made it very easy for us to get there and board the boat. Once we took off we were at the fishing spot in 25 min. Once the lures hit the water we started catching huge stripped bass! It was 5 of us guys and there was a perfect amount of space for us. We took home fish and caught another 20 that were big and had to release. Captain made it very easy for us catch and release. At the end of the trip he cleaned all the fish for us and bagged it. We got to drive around and see some beautiful scenery as well. I would 100% book again. Thanks Captain!
