This was the best fishing charter we've gone on.
Back Bay & Near Shore (7AM - 12PM) on July 18, 20266 adults

We didn't catch keepers, but not for lack of the crew's efforts. We were a charter of women of various skill levels. Capt'n and mate,Connor made up for any and all disappointment about not catching keepers with their personalities, patience, professionalism, and kindness. I'm sure, had the weather cooperated, the cooler would have been filled with our catches. I would definitely use them again. Thanks for making my 62nd birthday memorable. I'll see you again.

Went out with Captain Dave and Connor on July 16th. They are great people to fish with. I returned to Nanticoke Outfitters after my experience last year. Captain Dave and Connor are professional and personable. I am very appreciative of the way they treated my teenage daughters throughout the trip. They work extremely hard to give you the best opportunity to catch fish, regardless of conditions. Thanks for another enjoyable trip.

Had a great trip with Captain Dave and Frank. It was just the three of us on the boat, which made for a really fun and laid-back experience. These guys were easy to talk to, worked hard the entire trip, and clearly know their stuff. Captain Dave put us on fish, and Frank was always right there to help, keep things moving, and make sure I was having a good time. It never felt rushed—just a great day on the water with good company, plenty of laughs, and fish coming over the rail. cant wait to get back out with these guys

Response from Charter operator

Thank you for taking the time to write a review Jose. We had a blast hanging out with you and wetting a line. we are looking forward to fishing with you again later this summer as we discussed during your trip. I’m attaching a picture of your first striped bass! Congrats!!! Capt. Dave
