    My grand kids had a blast today!

    2 hour Bay fishing - 9:30 AM • 4 adults • 2 children

    Took 2 of my grandkids (ages 5 and 7) out today with Captain Ben and it was a big hit. We caught about 10-12 fish; all different kind so it was a lot of fun for the kids. Capt. Ben was great with the kids and I highly recommend him and this fishing adventure. The 2 hour trip was perfect and the weather cooperated. Thanks Captain Ben- I will be back with more of my grandkids! PS- I went with Captain Ben because he 14/14 "5 stars" and he did NOT disappoint! He now has 15/15 "5 stars". Jim

    Perfect morning on the water!

    2 Hour Trip – Bay Cruise/Fishing - 9:00 AM • 4 adults

    My family booked a 2-hour fishing trip with Captain Ben. The weather on our original day wasn't ideal (it was super windy) and Captain Ben communicated with us right away and recommended rescheduling for the following day when conditions would be better. We really appreciated his excellent communication, and judgement because the next day was beautiful! On the day of the trip, Captain Ben and his friend (sorry, I can't remember his name!) were both wonderful. They were patient, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable. Ben even built his boat, which is so cool!! We visited three different fishing spots and everyone caught several fish throughout the trip. It was obvious that both of them have a great understanding of the ocean and the different species of fish in the area. They took the time to share their knowledge and made the experience enjoyable for everyone on board. We had a great time and would definitely recommend Captain Ben to anyone looking for a fun and successful fishing trip!

    Reported catch:
    Tautog

    Top‑Tier Charter Experience

    2 hour Bay fishing - 9:30 AM • 2 adults

    My wife and I had an awesome 2‑hour charter with Captain Ben and First Mate Garrett. We caught flounder, seabass, and a handful of other fish, and these guys made the whole experience top‑tier. They were patient, knowledgeable, and great teachers. The vibe was relaxed, fun, and perfect for a quick getaway on the water. Pricing was very reasonable, and we’d absolutely recommend this crew to anyone looking for a great day of fishing.
