If you’re ready to love fishing in Scranton, book a trip with Wicked East Charters. With Captain Gregory at the helm, you’ll have a knowledgeable and experienced guide.

Species like Spadefish, Bluefish, Sheepshead, Striped Bass, Flounder, Speckled Trout, Redfish, Black Drum, and more are in the cards, depending on the season. You’ll target your catch by spinning, popping, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

If you’re traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! If you don’t have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there’s one on board. Also, remember to bring snacks so that nobody gets cranky on an empty belly!

Capt. Kent operates a 22’ C-Hawk bay boat that can carry up to 3 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. You’ll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures. Live bait is available, but you should ask the captain whether you’ll be catching it yourself.

Before coming aboard, it will be necessary to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect. A few items to bring include sunscreen (non-spray), bottled water, and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
