MV Charters
Book your next trip with MV Charters and find out what keeps anglers coming back for more. With Captain Mike at the helm, you'll benefit from his years of knowledge and experience. You'll also receive a more personalized experience compared to the bigger party style fishing charters.
Depending on the season, you might hook into Striped Bass, Bluefish, Bonito, Scup, Black Seabass, Fluke, Tautog, Bluefin Tuna, Sharks and whatever else takes the bait. During the trip you might be trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids are absolutely welcome! The Captain has child sized life jackets, and can tailor the trip to getting the younger kids hooked up on age appropriate fish.
Your trip begins aboard a 21' Seaswirl walkaround with room for up to 4 passengers. It comes with all the essentials and gear needed to successfully land your targeted species. Your captain will provide quality rods, reels, and bait for you.
Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.
A few items to bring include sunblock (non-spray), sunglasses, and a jacket for cool mornings. There are two ice boxes built into the boat for your use. A cooler in your car is a good idea if you plan to harvest your catch. Bottled water, chips, and snacks are onboard, but you are welcome to bring other drinks. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid glass bottles.

Maria Bell5.0VerifiedNewAbove and Beyond
Half Day Trip – Inshore (AM) on October 3, 2026 • 4 adultsme and my family went on a fishing trip with Captain Mike. It was the best fishing trip ever. Captain mike went above and beyond our expectations. We highly recommend booking with Captain mike on the striper. We are looking forward to our next booking with Captain Mike. We caught tons of fish. Captain mike knew all of the hotspots and would not give up until we caught the fish that we wanted.. highly skilled, professional and awesome . had everything on board that you needed to fish. just want to say thank you again to captain mike and the striper.
Joe C5.0VerifiedFantastic Boat Captain!
Half Day Trip – Inshore (Day) on May 9, 2026 • 4 adultsIf you are looking for a top-tier fishing experience in Rhode Island, look no further than Captain Mike at MV Charters. We recently headed out into the bay with him to target tautog (aka blackfish) and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. We knew the weather would be less than ideal, and Captain Mike was more than willing to reschedule if we wanted, but my buddies and I chose to go anyway. His expertise was obvious. He knew exactly which spots would produce, and he put us on the meat almost immediately. He clearly has a genuine passion for the sport and is incredibly knowledgeable about everything that swims. When the clock started winding down, he actually went past our allotted time slot just to make sure we had every possible opportunity to land more fish. Captain Mike is a professional who truly cares about his clients' experience. We will for sure book future trips with him. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a productive, high-energy day on the water!
Warren Bennett5.0VerifiedCapt. Mike worked hard to put us on fish
3/4 Day Trip – Inshore/Nearshore on June 5, 2026 • 2 adultsThis trip brought us from Delaware to fish R.I. waters. Captain Mike was an excellent captain. His energy was perfect for us. He was very gracious and professional and I actually caught the largest stripper I ever landed the same was true for my buddy . I will absolutely be sailing with him again in the near future. He kept me informed from start to completion of our booking… Highly recommended!
