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?

Great Day
Half Day Trip (AM) on July 24, 202515 adults

Captain Scott and his first mate, Dave, were absolutely outstanding! From the moment we stepped on board, their attentiveness and professionalism were second to none. They made sure everyone felt comfortable and well taken care of throughout the trip. They were quick to assist with every catch, and anyone who needed help baiting their hooks received friendly, prompt support. Their dedication, positive energy, and genuine passion for what they do truly made the experience unforgettable. I can’t recommend them highly enough — they’re the dream team for an incredible day on the water!

Great experience
Half Day Trip (AM) on August 30, 20253 adults1 child

Had an absolute great time with my family and while a bit tricky at first the fish soon came biting left and right even landed me a 23in doormat. And the captain was a blast and old soul with a great sense of humor and helpful all around would absolutely recommend him to others who are looking for a relaxing fishing trip

Response from Captain

Hey Marvin the pleasure was all mine. I love family trips and was glad that you guys picked up the art of fluke fishing. You had one of the top ten days of the year. Enjoy your fish dinner and am looking forward to taking you out fishing again. Captain Scott

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!
