Slack Tide Charters 

Looking to go fishing in Gloucester? That’s what Slack Tide Charters is here for! Captain Matt will be your guide, bringing aboard years of angling experience.

These waters are known for Bluefish, Bluefin Tuna, Blue Shark, Porbeagle Shark, Thresher Shark, Haddock, Striped Bass, Cod, Atlantic Mackerel, and more – with any luck, you’ll find out for yourself! You can expect to do some light tackle fishing, drifting, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

The Slack Tide is a 2021 Cobia 320. At 32’ long she boasts ample room to both fish and relax while underway. With twin 300 hp Yamaha motors you will get to the fishing grounds quickly, ensuring you spend the most time fishing. The Slack Tide is equipped with state-of-the-art electronics along with all required USCG safety equipment to ensure a safe and memorable day of fishing. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided.

You’ll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.

The charter boat covers your fishing license, 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.

It’s never a bad idea to bring sunblock (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Slack Tide Charters!
