    Perfect day, perfect charter

    Half Day Trip – Inshore (AM) - 4ppl on June 22, 2026 • 2 adults

    We had a 4 hr trip starting at 7 am and Chris did not disappoint as our captain. We started striper fishing near Martha’s Vineyard and my father and I caught 2 with Chris’s guidance. After that we moved out into Nantucket Sound to ground fish and my Dad cleaned house pulling in 3 sea bass and 2 big scup. It was a great day and we’d definitely do it again. Can’t recommend Squid Row enough.

    Perfect trip experience

    Quick & Easy Inshore Fishing 2.5 hr - 11:00 AM on June 24, 2026 • 5 adults • 2 children

    This was beyond perfect. Had kids and adults having their first experience of deep sea fishing and it met all expectations and more. Chris was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful in every way. His gear and techniques were great and he was very good on teaching the kids and helping them.

    Very patient and informative

    Quick & Easy Inshore Fishing 2.5 hr on June 17, 2026 • 6 adults • 1 child

    Fishing with Squid Row was a great experience. This was our first time in Cape Cod and we had a 12 and 13 year old with limited fishing experience. Chris was quick to help and very patient. He even gave tips on how to cook our catch and was friendly enough to follow up to make sure we had a good time.

    Great Successful Trip!

    Half Day Trip – Inshore (AM) - 4ppl on September 20, 2025 • 2 adults

    I would highly recommend Captain Chris to anyone from beginners to experienced fisherman. He is local with years of experience on the water and knows where and how to target different fish species. We had a little bit of a rougher morning on the water due to some wind but that didn’t stop us. We were on the fish within the first hour and had a blast chasing them all morning/afternoon. We each caught a few fish and made some awesome memories! We’ll definitely be back with Captain Chris in the future!

    Great time!

    Quick & Easy Inshore Fishing 2.5 hr on June 21, 2025 • 3 adults

    Chris was great. He was accommodating and friendly. He took us to some good spots. We caught lots of fish and even a couple of sharks. Highly recommend. It was also not too long. My kids are older (teens) and they felt like they had plenty of time out there.

    Chris was wonderful! He was knowledgeable about all types on fish. He was patient and kind and showed us how to entice the fish. We caught some sea bass and sea robins. My son had a blast and is looking forward to his next ocean adventure.

    Captain Chris was really great with my 5 year old nephew. He let him try different rods and even showed me how to fish! It was the perfect weather and perfect amount of time to check out a few fishing spots. We will be going with captain Chris again

    Awesome Captain!

    Half Day Trip – Inshore (AM) - 4ppl on June 21, 2026 • 5 adults

    Chris made this experience very special as a Father’s Day outing for a group of best friends who had lost one of the members this year to cancer.Everyone raved about how knowledgeable and kind Chris was. Their buckets were full of fish when they got back, so he obviously went to a good spot. They are talking about future trips, even now!. Thank you so much. Chris.
