For Captain Vinnie, nothing beats taking anglers out for an enjoyable day on the water. He has been fishing the local waters for over 40 years and knows the fishery inside out. He is happy to cater to both beginners and experts alike and will be of great help if this is your first time fishing in New York.

Captain Vinnie and First Mate Miles took us on a great trip to catch striped bass! We had a range of experience in the group and they helped us all successfully catch fish. We started around 4:30am and caught live bait, and then we went out to catch our striped bass. Captain Vinnie put us on the fish and you could tell that he knew what he was doing, knew the area extremely well, and knew most of the other captains on the water. We had a great time!
