Seaspray invites you to experience the stunning waters of Freeport. With Captain Scott at the helm, you'll benefit from years of knowledge and experience.

You're likely to fish for Striped Bass, Cod, Flounder, Lingcod, Black Seabass, Thresher Shark, Tautog, and more if conditions are right. For these species, you're likely to drift and bottom fish using heavy tackle.

Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Also, remember to bring snacks so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty stomach!

Your excursion begins aboard a 51' Deck boat with space for 30 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. What's more, this vessel is wheelchair accessible. Capt. Scott has rods and reels for you.

A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly. Mates work hard to make your trip count, so a 10–20% tip is customary.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.

Some essentials to bring are sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), and bottled water. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Your trip with Seaspray is just a click away, so why not make it happen?

Perfect Day
Half Day Trip (AM) on August 27, 202610 adults4 children

What an amazing day on the water! Our family had such a great time fishing together, enjoying the beautiful weather, sharing lots of laughs, and making memories that we’ll never forget. There’s nothing better than spending quality time outdoors, watching the kids get excited with every catch, and simply enjoying each other’s company. It was the perfect family adventure, and we can’t wait to do it again!

It was nice to catch that real big fish also. Looks like the weather worked out in your favor for the morning and for the afternoon.I guess the captain really does have that connection. Looking forward to taking you guys out again in the future.

Capt. Scott runs trips out of Freeport aboard a 51' Deck boat. These waters are known for Striped Bass and Flounder and he will show you how to catch them. With 40 years of experience, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!
