The Upper Chesapeake Bay has a fish with your name on it, so let Bay Raider Outfitters help you catch it! Your guide for the day is Captain Joseph, allowing you to benefit from years of angling experience.
Around here, fishing is popular for Striped Bass, Catfish, White Perch, Yellow Perch, and more. You can expect to do some spinning, bottom fishing, or something more specialized in this area. You can take home any fish you catch within size and bag limits. Catch cleaning is available, so you can take your fish home to eat. Enjoy it later that day, or pack it away for months.
You’ll be welcome aboard a 23’ Center console with space for 4 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Capt. Joseph will provide rods and reels for you, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but you should ask the captain whether you’ll catch it yourself. The charter boat covers your fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time!
The captain fishes the area from Twin Brothers Rock in the Susquehanna River to Turkey Point on the Susquehanna Flats. Planning a family adventure? Kids are welcome! It’s always wise to bring snacks, drinks, sunblock (non-spray), sunglasses, and a cooler for your fish.
Now, come aboard with Bay Raider Outfitters and get hooked!

Half Day Morning Trip
My son(18) , nephew(12) and I had a wonderful morning out with Joe. He was easy to communicate with leading up to the trip and gave detailed instructions of where to meet him. Joe has been fishing this area for a long time and really knows where to go to find the fish. We caught a LOT of perch(small guys, fun to catch) and a few little catfish but the keepers were evading us all morning. About a half hour before the charter was to be over we started catching big catfish(which is what my son wanted, he loves to cook). Joe cleaned the fish while we finished up which was SOOoooo appreciated. 10/10 would recommend.

Me and two friends had a great time fishing and caught plenty of fish this time of year - mostly blue catfish and perch. The captain is knowledgeable and the service on the boat replenishing the bait was great. Will definitely return again with Captain Joe.

We used Captain Joe to do a morning fishing trip for our Dad's 20th anniversary of his passing to celebrate his life. We caught 6 fish all only 2 were under 10lbs. He is knowledgeable of the area, and cleaned the fish.

Captain Joe provided us with a trip we will most certainly remember. He was on the fish throughout our trip, 30+ catfish on a 4 hour trip, awesome is the best word to describe it. When we left my wife asked the boys scale of 1 to 10 how was the trip, 10’s from them and my wife and I. We will definitely be planning future trips with Captain Joe.
