Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Feel free to bring your own snacks so that everyone stays happy and energized!
Your vessel for the day is a 38' Bertram sportfisher with capacity for 6 passengers. It has outriggers, downriggers, everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. What's more, this vessel is wheelchair accessible. In addition the boat is equipped with a state of the art Seakeeper gyro that stabilizes the boat and makes fishing that much more comfortable. This unit takes the rock and roll out of a vessel and is a true game changer! Capt. Creed will provide rods and reels for you, as well as 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. A 20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.
There's no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.
Don't forget to bring sunscreen (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

5 Hour Trip – Inshore on July 31, 2025
Captain Creed and his first mate were incredibly accommodating, friendly, beautiful, clean boat with air conditioner and heat was an amazing experience. They went the extra mile to please us this week the fish biting was slow all week he tried extra hard to go out of his way and bring us places nobody else went and we ended up catching over 40 fish sea bass on a five hour tour. We ended up with seven great keepers was a fantastic time. Highly recommend him he will work hard for you also he had a Gyro, which balances the boat in the waves I’ve never seen that before. What an incredible idea so it was so steady please don’t hesitate book him !

5 Hour Trip – Inshore on May 24, 2025
We had an amazing experience with this fishing charter. From start to finish, everything was well organized and professional. The crew was not only knowledgeable and friendly but also incredibly helpful throughout the trip. They made sure everyone was comfortable and had a great time. Captain Creed specifically was extremely personable and touched base prior to the trip to iron out details, and was available at all times to answer any questions. We caught a ton of fish—way more than we expected (and way bigger). The boat was clean and well-maintained, and all the gear provided was top-notch. Whether you're a seasoned angler or a beginner, this charter is a great choice. We'll definitely be booking with them again! Thanks Captain Creed!!

5 Hour Trip – Inshore on May 25, 2025
Booked with Captain Creed and his mate Chris for Memorial Day weekend 2025 for a guys weekend stripped bass charter. These guys were Great! Put us right on the fish and gave us more than a few chances. We connected with a keeper and bunch of monster fish that were too big (not a bad problem to have). Captain Creed and Chris were fun to be around and helped coach the folks in our group well. Thinking about future charters with Captain Creed for the guys! Absolutely recommend. 10/10 would run it back again. Thanks for everything!

5 Hour Trip – Inshore on July 17, 2025
Captain Creed and first mate Rob were fantastic. From staying in communication the night before to easy to find marina. Weather and fishing grounds were perfect. Captain Creed knows his stuff and put us on the meat. We all caught fish all morning long. 10/10. We’ll be back!

Your captain
New London, Connecticut, United States
Growing up on Long Island sound I have been fishing these waters for over 20 years. After mating for a good captain and friend I decided to fullfill my passion to fish and teach by acquiring my 100 ton master credential and start a charter of my own. We take pride in our boat and gear, keeping everything well maintained and updated as necessary. As a teenager I started fishing for bass in the sound and shark and tuna off shore. My passion has lead me to prefect all types of fishing and continue to learn and teach. please feel free to inquire if you have any questions about myself or the charter.
