Be ready. Rockfishing is a little slow, but when they hit the lure, be ready for action.

Rowe Boat Sportfishing / Captain Lance Rowe Richmond, VA

Spectacular nature in the area, lots of wildlife, including fish, rays and bald eagles. Had a great time targeting Rockfish on an afternoon trip with Lures. Anybody from out of town should give Chesapeake Bay a try on light tackle.

Bring sun screen, plenty of beer, and a positive attitude and you'll have a great time. Listen to the captain and first mate as you hook fish because they can instruct you on how to reel them in without them jumping off your hook before they can be netted.

It’s hot so bring lots of water and be patient. Our first stop we only had 2 but once we moved we literally couldn’t keep up on the lines and we’re just pulling them into the boat

We ended up fishing very close to shore, which none of us expected. But using live bait and fishing for stripers near structures like bridges or pylons was very fun - we all enjoyed the trip!

Captain Eric did an amazing job making my son's first fishing trip a tremendous success. Not only did he work with us to reschedule to work around bad weather, but his expert knowledge of the area put us right on the fish. We were constantly reeling in fish for the entire charter. And the cherry on top was he filleted and vacuumed sealed our entire catch. We will definitely use Stella Charters for our next fishing charter!

Captain Scott Barmby was an excellent host for a very sensitive occasion - we were releasing my partner's ashes into the Bay. Captain Scott was very knowledgeable about the Bay and was very gentle and sensitive. I highly recommend him for anyone else who needs to release their loved one's ashes.

We did manage to catch a 24lbs. blue catfish which was a fun fight. And we caught several smaller ones too. Then we switched to perch for a bit because the stripes were not spawning yet. It was a fun half day. I’ll be back.

Nice boat that was a fishing machine. Wasn’t scared to get her dirty or mess anything up as the Capt told me she was meant for fishing. Which it very well did just that. Great trip. Capt was easy to get along with and made it enjoyable. Put me first and got me on the fish. Wish we could’ve put him on one but all good. Great time. Thanks man!

Beginning of December trip. Extremely foggy, we couldn't see but a few yards away. Capt Bob was able to use his radar and sonar to put us on the fish. His mate, Robert, was very nice and knowledgeable. Definitely will be using their services in the future.

This was a Great Trip. The Captain went above and beyond taking care of us. He worked extremely hard to put us on fish for the day. He knew the area extremely well and where to target during the day. Great people as well. Down to earth and fun.
