If you’re in the market for a day to remember, look no further than No Expectations Fishing.

Depending on the season, you might hook into Flounder, Black Drum, Striped Bass, Black Seabass, Tautog, and whatever else is biting. You’ll target your catch by spinning, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Trips with No Expectations Fishing are kid-friendly, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! If you don’t have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there’s one on board. Don’t forget to bring snacks to keep their stamina going!

Capt. Joseph will bring you aboard a 21’ Sea Hunt center console that can carry up to 4 passengers. It comes with all the essentials. Your captain will provide rods and reels. Live bait is on offer, but it’s good to ask about this so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.

You’ll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. Mates work hard to make your trip count, so a 10–20% tip is customary.

There’s no need to buy a fishing license, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

It’s never a bad idea to bring sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), and a hat. Water is included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but no glass containers are allowed onboard.

And that’s it! Your fishing trip with No Expectations Fishing is just a click away.

Great flounder fishing trip

VERIFIED

Caught a bunch of flounder and one small sea bass. Tried several different places until we found the fish but caught consistently all morning. Fun boat ride and great fishing experience. Brought our two kids 11 and 14, both had a great time. We will be booking next year too!
