There's a fish with your name on it in Solomons and Knotty-Kall Charters will help you catch it! Captain Mike 'Knotty' will be your guide, which means you'll tap into his sportfishing experience.

Fishing around here will often see you targeting Striped Bass, Atlantic Croaker, Perch, Bluefish, Spanish Mackerel, Speckled Trout, Whiting, and more if you come at the right time of year. During the trip you might be spinning, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. And, you can't go wrong with snacks so that everyone stays happy and energized!

Capt. Mike 'Knotty' welcomes you aboard a 38' Luhrs T-350 sportfishing vessel with capacity for 6 passengers. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures.

There will be a First Mate on board to help your trip run smoothly. It's customary to tip the Mate 10–20% to show your appreciation.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.

You can't go wrong when you bring sunscreen (non-spray), sunglasses, and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

How often would you rather be fishing? Go on and turn that day dream into a reality, with Knotty-Kall Charters.

Captain Mike and 1st Mate Pete are yhe BEST!
Luxury Bottom Fishing Experience 6H on June 24, 20266 adults

Our fishing charter with Captain Mike & 1st Mate Pete was outstanding! We truly appreciated the professionalism, energy and attention to detail that made for a great experience. Captain Mike provided great music and positioned the boat a productive locations and helped us almost max out our fishing limits. I would highly recommend Captain Mike to lead any fishing charter if you’re interested in having a great time out on the water!

Response from Captain

Brother Milton! Im glad you had an excellent trip overall. This trip broke my heart! High pressure stormy days yeild mixed results! Didnt help being on the begining of the season. I always want my guests to leave the boat with plenty of stories, fish, and memories for a lifetime! Yet we know that its called fishing and not catching for a reason. But better days are here! The Spot are jumping now! Come on back down and fish with me! We owe the fish some get back! Tight Lines! Capt. Knotty
