There's a fish with your name on it in Avon and Easy Going Charters will help you catch it! With Captain Frank at the helm, you'll have a knowledgeable and experienced guide.

Species like Sheepshead, Weakfish, Speckled Trout, Bluefish, Redfish, Spotted Seatrout, and more can be found in these waters if you come at the right time of year.

During the trip, you might be light tackle fishing, popping, jigging, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Frank can also take you Flounder gigging.

Families who love fishing together will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. And, you can't go wrong with snacks to ward off any mid-trip fatigue!

You'll be fishing aboard a 23' Carolina Skiff that can carry up to 6 passengers. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, as well as lures.

There's no need to buy a fishing license, just show up ready for a good time! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.

It's always wise to bring sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), bottled water, and a hat. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Absouletly amazing trip!
4 Hour Casting Trip (AM) on June 25, 20262 adults

The captain was awesome and very knowledgeable of the water and where the fish were. Each spot we went to we were on the fish within minuntes. He will put you on the fish, but its still up to you to get them on the boat. We landed some bluefish, houndfish, sheepshead, and sea trout but released it due to off season regulations. We even had some drums in sight but couldn’t get them. I recomemend booking with him if you’re in the area- you wont regret it. Plus we even got to see a pod of about 50 dophins with their babies.

Reported catch:
Bluefish (Tailor)

Wonderful trip
Clamming on July 1, 20262 adults4 children

Captain Frank was very patient and kind with all the kids in our group, he was very accommodating with what we were looking to do. We brought homes tons of clams and some really nice blue fish. Everyone had a wonderful time and we would definitely book another charter with this crew.
