If you plan on fishing in New London, look no further than Sound Charters.

The fish in these waters include Albacore Tuna, Bigeye Tuna, Bluefin Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, Striped Bass, Bluefish, Cod, Scup (Porgy), Tautog, Black Seabass, and more if you cast your line at the right time of year. You can expect to do some spinning, popping, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

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.

For more information about fishing with Sound Charters, you can send Capt. Creed a message down below.

5 Hour Trip – Inshore

Family Fishing Trip

VERIFIED

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 !

8 Hour Trip – Montauk Fishing

Awesome day on the water

VERIFIED

Boat and equipment were top notch, extremely clean and well maintained. Captain Creed and his mate Chris were knowledgable and beyond welcoming and friendly. Our group had a variety of people from almost no experience fishing and boating to others who have years on the water and every one of us learned some new stuff and had a great time. We went out, caught fish, had an awesome time and made it home safe, we cant wait to come back and book again!

5 Hour Trip – Inshore

Highly recommend!

VERIFIED

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!!

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!

Boy what a great time had by all; Capt Creed and his 1st Mate, Chris were attentive and so patient with our 6 person party. With a fleet of fishing boats and an anchored party fishing vessel all around us, only our boat seemed to consistently have fish on the line. I highly recommend Capt Creed and his beautiful, masterfully well maintained boat, the Bushwhacker!
