Vineyard Boat Charters is a bottom fishing charter that focusses on a family fishing experience that no other charter on the island does.  I will take you on a short run out of the Tashmoo Harbor and down the north shore of the Vineyard to some of my favorite bottom fishing spots.  We will drift and bottom fish as we float across good structure below that is home to Black Sea Bass, Scup, Fluke, Black Fish, Dog Fish, Sea Robbins, and who knows what else.

My goal is to show you a great time, educate you in the beauty and history of the Vineyard Sound and the fish that call it home, and make sure all have fun.  I love to see the kids with big smiles on their faces when they see what they reel in.  This is really about a family having a nice time, getting a chance to fish, and just a great part of their vacation.  Great opportunity for photos and memories.

I normally do morning trips, but I can do afternoon or even sunset if those times are better.  Parents sometimes like the sunsets, good for that nice family photo.  Two hours is really all you need.  There is a lot of action in the two hours, and it seems all get their fill in that time period.

My base price is for 4 anglers, two hours.  I am USCG licensed up to 6 anglers at an additional cost per added angler.  Extra fishing time is possible at an additional hourly rate.

I have all the safety gear you need but if you wish to bring yours you are welcome as long as it meets USCG regulations.

My boat has forward V berth with two bunks, a toilet ( head ) and running water for washing hands.  There is seating to accommodate up to 6 anglers, and we fold them up when we get to the fishing spots for room.

Some essentials to bring are sunglasses, a hat, sunblock (non-spray), and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now, time to hit the water with me and Vineyard Boat Charters and have fun.
