Boat full of suprises and memories – highly recommend this charter.
4 hour – Inshore on July 26, 2026 • 3 adults

Captain Dave and crew mate Nolan gave my family an absolutely fantastic day on the water with Blueline Fishing Charter. From the moment we stepped on the boat, they were welcoming, patient, and made us feel like we’d known each other for years. They walked us through all the safety tips and took the time to teach us the basics of fishing so even the beginners in our group felt comfortable and confident. Once we headed to their spots, it took less than 10 minutes at the first stop before we had fish on the lines, and the action just kept going. We caught so many striped bass that my family was cheering, laughing, and grinning ear to ear the whole trip. What really stood out was how knowledgeable Captain Dave and Nolan were and how clearly they love what they do. I highly recommend Blueline Fishing Charter to anyone looking for a memorable trip with top-notch captain and crew.

    I recently had the pleasure of going on a fishing charter with Captain David and Mate Matt, and I can't recommend them enough! David was an excellent captain who made everyone feel welcome from the start. His knowledge of the waters and fishing was impressive, and he ensured we were comfortable and well-informed throughout the trip. Matt, the mate, is second to none when it comes to spotting live bait, especially pogies. His sharp eyes and passion for fishing made all the difference. Both David and Matt clearly love what they do, and their enthusiasm made the trip not only successful but incredibly enjoyable. If you're looking for a fun, well-run fishing charter with a top-notch crew, look no further!

    Captain Dave and his first mate Glenn are amazing! We have done numerous fishing charters and have never experienced the genuine care in ensuring that everyone has an incredible day of fishing as we did with Dave and Glenn. My son wanted to try lobster fishing and they made him feel like a valuable deckhand. He was thrilled! After a successful lobster haul, Captain Dave went an hour over our time to give my son the additional experience of reeling in a large bass. It was incredible; the highlight of our vacation!!! Blueline Fishing Charters has my highest recommendation for a truly amazing fishing experience!
