    Happy 90th birthday

    6 Hour Trip – Fall - 12:30 PM • 8 adults • 2 children

    I took 4 generations on a beautiful Saturday in early October. Captain Jason and his mate Curtis worked tirelessly to put us over fish. I got to see my father reel in a rockfish on his 90th birthday and he witnessed his great-granchildren catching their first rockfish. 5 stars. I would recommend this experience for families especially!

    Response from Captain

    It was a pleasure fishing with Dante and his family. We were fortunate to be apart of his Fathers 90th Birthday Celebration also! We hope to see this great family again soon!

    Capt Jason & Crew - Outstanding!

    6 Hour Trip – Spring & Summer - 12:30 PM • 5 adults • 3 children

    The experience with Captain Jason, his crew, and boat was excellent from beginning to end. He was proactive on calling me to arrive earlier due to weather forecast for a rainy afternoon. Also, when we arrived, the boat, bait, and gear was all prepared and ready to go. They gave myself and my children, the one on one attention that we expected so it was really worth it. You won’t be disappointed! Highest recommendation.

    Thank you for the great review Werner! We had a great time with your family and we had a blast watching the kids catching Striped Bass! We look forward to seeing everyone again soon aboard The Marylander!

    We had an excellent time with our friends and specially with my son, it was his first fishing trip and he had a great time! Jason, the captain and Steve, his helper, were very attentive and knowledgeable, they were a big help for my son and I really appreciate it! Even though it wasn't the greatest time for fishing, we still caught nice size fish and the crew definitely made our experience 10 times better! Will definitely book this ship again!

    If you’re considering this fishing charter, just take the bait and book! (See what I did there?) Captain Jason was responsive, patient, knowledgeable and on task. First Mate Curtis was everything, everywhere, all at once. 😊 The boat is beautiful and very well kept; the ride was quick and smooth…well, you know, there was water involved. This was a wonderful Father’s Day activity; we will be back!

Sunshine and great Summer Fishing aboard

Jun 21, 2020 • Stevensville
On this evening we enjoyed another wonderful trip with another great Crew! The fish were biting and our Crew was ready to reel! Calm seas and great weather helped us reach our limit. Our young anglers even got to see the Chesapeake Bay Bridge up close! We believe that the month of July & August will be great for trolling and light tackle. Book your next trip to get in on the action aboard Maryland's premier charter boat The Marylander!!!

Preparation for Spring!

Mar 2, 2020 • Stevensville
As we turn the page on another month in the calendar, March brings us new hope that spring will soon arrive, and an awakening of anglers will soon venture out of months of hibernation on the Chesapeake Bay. For those of us that are dedicated anglers, we have kept our sanity by pursuing Chesapeake Bay pan fish (Yellow & White Perch) this winter during unusually seasonable temperatures. Though, the migration and spawning of these fish are coming to a finally in our local rivers in Creeks this month. Chain Pickerel, Crappie, and Hickory Shad (or Poor Man’s Tarpon) are a fan favorite to pursue after the migration of Perch. These fish can be targeted in local creeks by using small shad darts dressed with small twister tails, small spoons mimicking flashes of minnows, or with small flies. The technique and lure presentation is similar to this past months Perch fishing and provide an abundance of activity if executed properly. For the remainder of March, our focus turns to Preparation of our Vessel, in the mist of the Super Bowl of the Chesapeake Bay, the Opening of Striped Bass Season. Each sheet of sandpaper used, layer of paint applied, and upgrade to mechanism from year prior, is all for the betterment of angler experience and safety aboard The Marylander. Our motivation is to create a memorable experience that was better than the last and our preparation for success is relentless during the month of March. It is our hope that the future season is plentiful and the new changes in regulations announced create positive change to our fishery. Not only are we as anglers in a state of preparation, it is with great optimism that the changes to our regulations this past off season will prepare us for future success on the Chesapeake Bay.
