Hoping to catch some fish in Groton? Apex Angling CT is here to make it happen! Captain Benjamin will be your guide, bringing aboard their professional experience.
Full-service Fishing Charter and Guide Service based in Fairfield, and Noank Connecticut operated by Captain Ben Burdine. Fishing Western and Eastern Long Island Sound.
Specializing in Light Tackle, Fly Fishing, Topwater, and Sight-fishing, almost exclusively using lures and flies. Targeting Striped Bass, Bluefish, False Albacore and Atlantic Bonito inshore. Targeting Bluefin and Yellowfin Tuna offshore.
Captain Ben can comfortably accommodate 1-2 anglers aboard his 20' Seacraft,
and 1-4 anglers aboard his 26' Regulator.

Our mission first and foremost is to provide customers with a safe, fun and memorable experience. We seek to make anglers the best they can be and to achieve their personal goals on the water fishing. For those seeking to learn or observe something new.

We believe in hunting for fish rather than laying traps. We believe the hunt and pursuit of fooling the fish of your dreams is more important than the harvest. We practice sustainable fishing, as well as catch and release. No Trolling, No excessive bait fishing.

July, August and September we travel east more often, launching from Noank, CT targeting Bluefin and Yellowfin Tuna, as well as Trophy stripers in Eastern Sound and off Block Island. Mid-to-late September and October are prime months for False Albacore, Striped Bass, Bluefish, and ocassionally Atlantic Bonito back in Western Long Island Sound.
