Spend the day with Mikey's Guide Service and let them show you what makes the fishing in Chesapeake Beach so memorable! With Captain Michael at the helm, you'll have a knowledgeable and experienced guide.
Fishing around here will often see you targeting Crab, Spotted Seatrout, Bluefish, Cobia, Black Seabass, Striped Bass, Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, and more if you come at the right time of year.
Depending on the species you're after, you may find yourself spinning, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Michael also offers fly fishing, but you may need to bring your own fly gear.
Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Snacks are permitted onboard — bring your favorites to ward off any mid-trip fatigue!
You'll be dropping lines from a 22' KenCraft Challenger center console with a capacity for 4 passengers. It has all the essentials. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, along with lures. Live bait is available, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.
A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly. It's customary to tip the Mate 10–20% to show your appreciation.
Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.
It's recommended to bring sunblock (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Captian Michael and his son, Ayden, are a great team. My husband, Matt, said they knew their fishing, and even though I know little, they taught me. They were relaxed and easy going, no big deal when I made a mistake, yet excitement when Matt and I caught fish. Highly recommend them to anyone wanting to fish the area. I did an extensive search and they have the best price per hour and filet the fish you catch that you’re allowed to keep. They knew the fishing rules and respected them.
thanks again for the great trip.
Mike had us work several locations using different lures and baits with good success. We quickly caught our limit of rockfish and then did a lot of catch and release. I also really appreciated Mike’s courteous interaction with the boat police - all was in good order, and he enable the officer to do her job quickly and with a smile. Overall = great!
Thanks for the trip. It was my pleasure. Yall made my job easy
My husband wanted to celebrate his 40th going fishing. We did just that. Didn’t have to bring anything but ourselves. Captain Mike was very helpful because I was the only one who didn’t know how to fish. It was pretty cool and I look forward to cooking our fish for dinner. Would definitely recommend!! It’s very peaceful.
thanks again
He knows where fish is and helped us reel in day-limit number of nice sized rockfish.
Thanks for being so understanding given the circumstances we made the best of it. Weather was not on our side
Mike and his son took my girl friend and me out for a great day of fishing. We were catching fish within 15min of leaving dock. The crew did a fist class job of keeping us bated up and lines in the water. There were times where we had three fish on at the same time. For a fun day of bay fishing I highly recommend. Ned
Thanks for coming out. We battled the high winds and came out on top. Also thanks for understanding the last minute location change. Hope to see yall again.
