Lewestown Lady Charters is here to help you experience the stunning waters of Lewes.
Our 4-hour Shark trips mainly target Sand Tiger Sharks and Brown Sharks.
For Full Day 8-hour ocean fishing we target Flounder & Black Seabass in the summer. In the fall/spring, it is Tautog, Striped Bass, and Black Drum.
For the half-day bay fishing, we target Croaker, Spot, Trout, and more, which could be biting if you cast your line at the right time of year. On the day of your trip, you’re likely to troll and bottom fish using light tackle.
You’ll be casting lines from a 42’ sportfishing vessel with space for up to 12 passengers depending on the trip. For Shark fishing, it is a maximum of 6. It has outriggers, a fighting chair, and everything else you need for a productive day on the water. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience.
Capt. H.D. will supply rods and reels for you. Bait is available, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.
A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly. Mates work hard to make your trip count, so a 20% tip is customary.
The charter boat covers your fishing license, just show up ready for some fishing! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.
Don’t forget to bring sunglasses, a hat, sunblock (non-spray), and bottled water. If you’d like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Fisherman’s Wharf!
