Captain Tim's Chincoteague Bay Adventures
Chincoteague Bay Adventures offers customizable and affordable family fun fishing trips to serve any angler's need. All trips are private, so you'll always have the whole boat for your group only! If you would like to fish in these Virginia and Maryland waters (convenient to Ocean City, MD,) and have fun onboard with a polite and friendly captain, look no further!
These waters are home to a variety of species, including sharks. Captain Tim knows how to find fish and make your trip memorable. If you want a snippet of action, have a look at some of the fishing reports he's written.
Capt. Tim is a certified fly fishing guide and casting instructor trained at ORVIS-endorsed Hubbard Guide School in Emigrant, Montana. He works with anglers to explain why the fish feed where they feed and how your method will entice them. So, it's not just doing, it's also understanding, and then doing it better.
You will join the captain aboard his historic 22' Jones Brothers Bateau skiff, restored in 2017. 'Shadrunner' can accommodate up to six people, and take them fishing around flats, nearshore, inshore, and backcountry waters. The boat is equipped with a fishfinder and GPS, has a cooler, and a bathroom is always nearby.
You can go spinning, jigging, drift fishing, fly fishing, or bottom fishing, and depending on what you're targeting, use heavy or light tackle. Depending on the season, there is Shark (catch and release only), Redfish, Striped Bass, Cobia, Flounder, and many more. You can customize your trip to suit you, your family, friends, or fellow anglers.
Capt. Tim has a cooler to store your catch so that you can have a tasty meal afterwards, once he cleans your fish. The captain will provide you with rods, reels, tackle, lures, and bait, and will take care of the fishing license. You can also choose to release your catch.

Great boat for fishing- lots of horizontal surfaces for sitting and fishing, stable in the water. Bimini top to keep you cool. Capt. Tim was great- very chill, down to earth, knowledgeable and motivated. We caught over 40 fish, 6 different species. More than enough for family dinner despite having a few a bit too small. Saw some wildlife while on the water, from feeding dolphins to a "cannonball" jellyfish. Beautiful views all around. Would defintely book Capt. Tim again.
Thank you! I look forward to us fishing again.
We took a seafood feast trip with Captain Tim and had a FANTASTIC time! We started by checking several crab traps he'd set previously and netted four crabs to keep. We caught a good handful of spot fish, then the highlight of the trip - clamming! We had a BLAST clamming on the mud flats and looking at all the wildlife. Captain Tim was great with the kids - just the right about of helpful - and shared a lot of info about what we were doing and why. He definitely knew his stuff and moved us around when the fish weren't biting. We'd absolutely go out with Tim again - the four hours absolutely flew by .
Thank you, Nicole,. Great family, great morning!
Trip was good even if fishing success was difficult. Recent weather appears to have had a negative impact on fishing. Several heavy rain storms in the days leading up to the trip dropped excessive rain fall amounts throughout the region. Rain fall totals were in excess of 6 inches. Heavy winds during the storms also contributed to poor water clarity. I have fished with Captain Tim several times in recent years. All those trips were successful and well worth the effort. During this most recent trip, Captain Tim worked hard to find fish moving to many spots to locate cooperative fish, but Mother Nature had other plans.
Captain Tim knew where all the good fishing spots were and knew when to keep fishing an area or move to another spot. He did a great job of giving us instructions and sharing his fishing knowledge. The fishing conditions during our trip were not the most ideal, but we still were able to catch some nice fish and had plenty of fish to take home with us. Would highly recommended Captain Tim to anyone who wants to fish regardless of experience level. Thanks Tim!
Thank you, Craig! It was a fun morning. I hope we get the opportunity to fish again.
We caught several fish ranging from croaker, seabass, king fish, toad fish, squid, blue crabs, spot, and even a dusky shark! Captain Tim knew that ocean like the back of his hand. He knew all the spots to catched different species. We already cant wait to come back!
Thank you! It was a fun morning. I thought the dolphin fest was special. I look forward to next time. P.S. Great sandwich!
