Great Boat and Crew for a Private Charter

Striped Bass 4 Hour Trip on August 29, 2025 • 2 adults • 2 children

My friend and I took our kids out with Captain Graham. This was their first time boat fishing, so the trip was mainly for their experience. Graham and his first mate were excellent. They explained stuff clearly, remembered the kids' names, helped them out, and got them involved. Graham even invited my daughter (6) to sit up with him at the console on the ride back. We went ocean fishing, then returned to the bay and trolled around some piers, giving us a varied fishing experience. We caught fish, and everyone had a blast. I would highly recommend this charter. Very family-friendly, and Graham seems like a great person in general.

Fantastic day!!

Striped Bass 4 Hour Trip on August 14, 2025 • 2 adults

Captain Graham was great, fun to chat with and easy going. Got us on lots of fish and gave us a little extra time to try and get the elusive keeper fluke. Never got it but hit our limit of sea bass and he even filleted them, vacuum sealed them and dropped them off at my rental house! Can’t ask for better service than that! Will definitely de back again!!!
