This adventure takes you to Ridge, MD, where you can explore the lower Potomac and Chesapeake Bay for the fall Striper migration. Beautiful scenery, lots of hard-fighting Stripers, all while enjoying a day on the water - it hardly gets better than that.

Captain John Whitman is a second-generation fisherman with over 45 years of angling and boating experience under his belt, making him your perfect guide to the Bay and its bountiful waters. He was born and raised here, and loves targeting anything from Redfish to Black Drum to Mackerel—but especially Striped Bass!

Hook Mash Charter Fishing offers the ultimate platform for large groups looking for fun fishing in the Chesapeake Bay. Based out of Tracey’s Landing, MD, you are less than an hour from D.C. and Baltimore, and right in the heart of Maryland fishing territory, with great inshore species to be found pretty much as soon as you get out from the dock.

You will fish aboard a 42’ Provincial powered by a 450 HP Diesel engine. This vessel is fitted with top of the line gear, featuring the likes of Okuma, Shimano, and Penn. Your captain will do his best to have the live bait well full when you arrive. There’s room for six passengers on board and children of all ages are welcome.
