Spend the day with Stella Charters and find out what the fishing in Pasadena is all about! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Eric knows them forwards and back.

The fish in these waters include Striped Bass, Bluefish, Catfish, White Perch, Yellow Perch, and more. You can expect to do some spinning, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Eric also offers fly fishing, but you will need to bring your own fly gear.

Trips with Stella Charters are kid-friendly, so feel free to make a family day out of it! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Snacks are also a good idea so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!

Capt. Eric will bring you aboard a 29’ NauticStar 28XS Offshore center console with room for 6 passengers. It comes with outriggers and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. You’ll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but you should ask the captain whether you’ll be catching it yourself.

There’s no need to buy a fishing license, just show up ready for some fishing! Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

It’s never a bad idea to bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). Bottled water will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Stella Charter will make it easy for you to go fishing in Pasadena. So, how about booking that trip?

Member since February 2024
USCG Licensed Captain Eric Goodrich was born and raised in Upstate New York. Spending countless hours fishing and hunting, Eric acquired a vast amount of nautical knowledge when he became a mate on a charter boat on Lake Ontario. Earning a four-year college degree in Fisher and Wildlife Management, as well as employment at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Eric moved to Maryland to start a career in environmental restoration. He started, owned and operated his own environmental restoration company that specialized in stream restoration, wetland construction and shoreline stabilization. With over 30 years in the environmental field, Eric gained a phenomenal amount of knowledge about the Chesapeake Bay, local streams, surrounding watersheds, currents, tides and hydrology. Eric holds many professional certifications, including Chesapeake Bay Landscape, Maryland Tree Expert, and ISA Certified Arborist. His genuine interest and dedication to fisheries and wildlife management led Eric to start Stella Charters LLC in January 2023. He earned his USCG Captain License for uninspected vessels for six passengers or less up to 100gt/100 miles offshore. Serious and recreational fishing for the last 7 years, Eric is grateful for the knowledge he has acquired from friends and other charter captains. He is ready to share that knowledge and “pay it forward” with guests who are ready to venture out on the Chesapeake Bay aboard the Stella Charter!
