Excited to cast a line in Danvers? That's what Carol Anne Charters is here for!
These waters hold game fish like Striped Bass, Bluefish, Skipjack, Cod, Flounder, Haddock, Atlantic Mackerel, and more with any luck. You can expect to do some spinning, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Also remember to bring snacks to keep up those energy levels!
Capt. Danny welcomes you aboard a 23’ Parker pilothouse with capacity for 4 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, just show up ready for a good time! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.
You can't go wrong when you bring sunblock (non-spray), sunglasses, and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
If you had a great time on the water, tipping the captain and mate—typically around 15%—is a thoughtful way to show your appreciation for their effort and service
And that's it! Your fishing trip with Carol Anne Charters is just a click away.

8 Hour Trip – Deep Sea
I took my 15 year old grandson who was visiting from North Dakota, who is also an avid lake fisherman. He was so excited and Captain Mike didn't disappoint! The boat was clean, we weren't on the water long before the fish were flying in the boat! Every area we fished in, we caught something! Stripper, Haddock, Mackerel, and a Cod we threw back. Such a fun day. Mike is knowledgable, friendly and willing to do anything to make sure we had a great time. HIGHLY recommend and will certainly go again soon!

5 Hour Trip - 12:00 PM
we had a great day out on the water with capt Mike! we caught some mackerel, which seemed to bait the crabs. no luck with the stripers, but could see all the bate fish they were chasing when the tide came in, so we were in the right place. Mike was very entertaining and a good time was had by all.

Our family had an absolutely amazing fishing trip! From start to finish, everything was smooth, well-organized, and so much fun. Captain Danny was professional, friendly, and clearly passionate about what he does. I would recommend this fishing trip to anyone, I can’t wait to go back again!

The captain was great and very accommodating. My 13 year old son caught his first striper and was having a blast. Seas were a bit rough and the captain let us stay on with him for a couple extra hours. Overall this was a great day of fishing and an overall great experience!!! Will do this again for sure
