Book your next trip with Eastern Viking Charters and find out what you're missing on the water in Gloucester! With Captain Derek at the helm, you're in knowledgeable and experienced hands!!

These waters are known for Bluefin Tuna, Striped Bass, Haddock, Bluefish, Flounder and much more!! With any luck, they'll make your reel scream and fill your cooler.**Be advised**For Bluefin tuna trips. NOAA restricts us from landing tuna 7 days a week all season!! June, 7 days a week we can land these fish. July hits and rfd's (restricted fishing days) go into effect were we can only land tuna's on sundays, mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Some years sundays are restricted too. (RFD's) go from July 1st-November 30th. This is a highly regulated fishery. Closed days (Tuesdays, fridays, and Saturday) we can still hook them and fight them but once the fish is to the boat, we will swim the fish bringing it back to life, take pictures with you and your fish then safely release back to the wild. If you're lucky enough to land one of these giants on a kill day your party will receive 20% off your next charter of equal value!!

**Be advised** Stripped bass have slot size to keep 28in-31in

You'll be fishing from a 35' Henriques downeast with space for 6 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without!! Your captain will provide rods and tackle and bait

You can't go wrong when you bring sunblock (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, lunch, snacks and sunglasses. If you get seasick dramamine will be a good choice!! Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. Emergency waters are onboard if needed

It is accustom to the industry that a 15-20% tip for deckhands help for the day. They do not make any money unless the boat sells fish and they will work hard to make sure you are well equipped and cared for on the deck while fishing!!! If any concerns with deckhand help please address any issues with capt Derek

Great birthday fishing trip in the bay
5hr Trip-Flounder(AM) on August 23, 20253 adults2 children
Captain Derek and Kevin were amazing. Helpful with the kids and made it a fun experience. We caught a ton of makeral and used them for live bait fish for the 3 stripers we caught. He filet’d them up after so we could enjoy a nice dinner from the fresh fish we caught. Definitely booking with him again
