Spend the day with Local Hooker Charters and find out what the fishing in Ocean City, Maryland is all about!

Depending on the season, you might hook into Flounder, Black Seabass, Striped Bass, Bluefish, Spanish Mackerel, Tautog, Sheepshead, Speckled Trout, Weakfish, and whatever else is biting.

On the day of your trip, you're likely to bottom fish, troll, or maybe even anchor up for shark fishing.

Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are absolutely welcome! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, no worries because we have some onboard. All life jackets are equipped with light activated beacons.

You'll be welcome aboard a 25' Pilothouse with room for 4 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without.

Rods, reels, and tackle are provided. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the Captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, just show up ready for some fishing! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Your Captain will help you follow regulations while you fish. Fish cleaning included in all of your trips.

It's never a bad idea to bring sunglasses, a hat, sunscreen (non-spray), and bottled water. Adult beverages allowed, no hard liquor and we ask you drink responsible.

How often would you rather be fishing? Go on and turn that daydream into a reality, with Local Hooker Charters.

Great trip with Captain Will
3 Hour Bay Trip on July 13, 20252 adults2 children

Family of 4 with 5 and 11 year old boys went out for 3 hours. It was the 5 year old’s first time fishing and really first time on a boat. Great experience for him. Will spent the most time with him and helped him catch fish. He was really good with our little guy. We fished 4-5 different spots but only caught things in one. While we fished multiple spots, there wasn’t much ride time. I’m guessing in 3 hours we had mines in the water for 2h40m. We were fishing within about 3 mins of leaving the dock. Saw wild ponies on the shore. Things to know: not really any shade on the boat and only 1 seat in the back which was a padded cooler. Will probably try for a shark trip next time.

Reported catch:
Flounder

Catching not Fishing
4 Hour Bay Trip on April 24, 20264 adults

I had a great time with Capt. Will. Fishing started slow but he moved until we got on them. Unfortunately we didn’t get any keeper’s, but definitely landed enough to be happy. I’m absolutely planning on doing another trip with him.
