Captain Pete is New England's Fisherman cover guy for the August 2022 edition, and for a good reason! He will provide you with an experience of a lifetime! Tuna Fishing is his niche. He would say that catching them on spinning rods is next-level and just plain - sick!

    Awesome trip

    3/4 Day Trip — Full Tide (PM)3 adults1 child

    My daughter and I had an amazing time. Captain Pete was just as emotionally invested in us catching fish as we were. We were able to land several amazing fish he also new where to fish. Even if we didn't catch anything it would still have been worth it. Double 👍👍

    Captain Pete put us on some amazing Albacores!

    Half Day Trip2 adults

    Captain Pete was a great guide who showed a couple of freshwater fisherman used to bass, trout and pike how to fish for albies. He put us on many fish and showed us how to cast and fish for these tuna. Was a great instructor and fun to spend the afternoon with. My dad and I couldn’t have had a better afternoon than we could have expected and be booking another trip out on the sound with Captain Pete again!!!

    Response from Captain

    Memorable trip, for sure! Thanks guys!

Striped Bass fishing is heating up in CT

Apr 20, 2025 • Fairfield
Easter weekend was very productive (during the right tides) while targeting striped bass on soft plastics. These fish were in the salt, with some pushing 30”. On Saturday, 12 year old - Josh hooked and landed a 30” striped bass during a great father & son trip under the high sun! I expect the fishing to improve with each passing day, going forward and it should be in full swing by the beginning of May! Prime time is NOW through June for your best shot at a striper of a lifetime! Book Now!

False Albacore have arrived

Sep 17, 2024 • Fairfield
Fishing is improving by the day, and the Fall Run has begun. False Albacore (aka Albies) just arrived, right on schedule, spanish mackerel have been local for almost a month, bluefish are everywhere, and the striped bass fishing is picking up during low - light hours. If you love adventure with a side of adrenaline, or have albie FOMO - you may want to Book, sooner rather than later, as the schedule is filling up, fast and the fishing is good, now! Now through Halloween is game. Hope to see familiar clients, and meet some new faces! Tight Lines. Pete

Fishing is on fire!

Jun 27, 2024 • Fairfield
Since the moon last weekend, the Striped Bass fishing has gotten even better than it was prior. Every trip this week, has been killer - throwing big topwater plugs at XL Bass and Bluefish feeding on bunker on the surface. What fisherman dream about.. This season the bass have really chewed well in the top half of the water column, not only making it easier for clients to cast to and hook the fish, but also adding another element of excitement - watching these apex predators feed viciously on the surface, putting on a visual show. The fishing is as good as it gets, right now and the weather looks great for the foreseeable future. Lets Rock!
