You’ll be fishing aboard a 48’ Ocean Yacht sportfishing with space for 6 passengers. It has outriggers, downriggers, a fighting chair, all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures.
Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.
The charter boat covers your fishing license, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.
It’s recommended to bring bottled water, sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

White marlin!
8 Hour Trip on July 1, 2025
Beautiful boat, comfortable AC, and Captain Steve kindly tried hard to make sure we each caught a fish. We all did. Even a very early season white marlin!! With lots of fun fanfare back at the dock. Even was flexible to change dates last minute due to weather forecast. Highly recommend. Thank you Captain Steve!

Great Day with Captain Steve & First Mate Ethan!
12 Hour Trip on September 14, 2024
We had an amazing day out of Ocean City, Maryland on this charter fishing boat! We caught tuna, mahi, and tile fish – a great variety that kept things exciting. Our kids (15 and 10) had an absolute blast. The captain and mate were not only super knowledgeable, but also a lot of fun, which made the whole trip even better. They were great with the kids, really patient and engaging, and made sure everyone was involved. Can’t recommend this trip enough for families or anyone looking to reel in some serious fish and have a great time doing it!

The Best Fishing Trip Hands down!!! I was on a bachelor party fishing trip with the cast and crew of 30 DEEP, let me tell you all, hearing the words “Fish On!!!” was an understatement.
