Tight Times Charters offers a variety of charters, including sport fishing, cruises, Blue Angels demonstrations, and parties. The professional captain and crew know all the hotspots to put you on the fish.

These waters are known for Striped Bass, Bluefish, Catfish, Spanish Mackerel, and Perch. We deploy a variety of fishing techniques, including trolling, live lining, spinning, jigging, bottom fishing, and light tackle.

All trips will include the necessary rod and reels, tackle, bait, lures, and licensing. Any fish within the legal limit is yours to keep. Plus, the crew will clean and fillet your catch following the trip. Now that’s dinner!

The boat is a 32’ KenCraft offshore sport fishing vessel with a capacity for 6 passengers. This fishing machine is powered by twin 210 HP Cummings motors and is equipped with the latest fishing gear, navigation equipment, and fish-finding electronics.

The amenities onboard also include a bathroom, refrigerator, and multiple coolers to keep your catch and beverages of choice ice cold. All you need to bring are your drinks and snacks we’ll take care of the rest. Children are welcome aboard, so feel free to make it a family trip.

Come out on Tight Times and enjoy a day on the Chesapeake Bay!

3hr Bottom fishing how to trip.

Perfect Pre-Teen Birthday Celebration!

VERIFIED

We booked the 3-hour fishing tour with Tight Times for my son’s 11th birthday, and it was an unforgettable experience! He invited four of his best friends, and together they caught over 100 fish — croaker, spot, and even a puffer fish. The boys had an absolute blast, and the excitement never stopped. Captain and first mate were fantastic — patient, encouraging, and so great with the kids. They made sure everyone was having fun, stayed safe, and reeled in plenty of catches to keep the energy high. It was the perfect mix of adventure and celebration. If you’re looking for a fun, family-friendly outing where kids (and adults!) will make amazing memories, I can’t recommend Tight Times enough. We’ll definitely be back, next time for the 6 hour tour!
