Backlash Guide Service llc
Book your next trip with Backlash Guide Service and find out what keeps anglers coming back to Chatham for more. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Sam can tell you all about the local fishery.
Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Striped Bass, Bluefish, Bonito, Black Seabass, Bluefin Tuna, Flounder, and who knows what else! You can expect to do some spinning, popping, trolling, jigging, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Sam also offers fly fishing, but you may need to bring your own fly gear.
You’ll find yourself aboard a 32’ Regulator center console with space for 5 passengers. It has outriggers and all the essentials. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, as well as lures.
There’s no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish. Don’t leave home without sunglasses, bottled water, and sunblock (non-spray). Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is not allowed.

Striper fishing was a blast with Capt Sam
Great day out on the boat with Capt Sam, weather shaky to start and think that held the other fisherman back, not our Capt, found the rips and first cast hooked a keeper, got our limit and released a bunch, thanks for making our day Captain Sam!

Awesome trip!
We had so much fun, caught big fish with state of the art gear, and the Captain was super cool.
