''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''Growing up around the Chesapeake Bay, I was always on the water fishing. For over 20 years I have spent many days on the water fishing.' Captain George Trice has always loved everything angling-related! He grew up on the rich waters of Chesapeake Bay, and decided to turn his passion for fishing into a career in 2016, when he got his captain's license. His favorite part of his job is seeing the smiles on his customers' faces, especially if they're brand new anglers who have just caught their first fish! He wants to help his guests create memories that will last forever, and hopes that they'll fall in love with fishing just like he did. In addition to this, Capt. George also loves taking part in tournmanets, and he won various awards. This includes 1st place in the 2016 'Long Beach Point Cobia Tournament,' 1st place in the 2016 'Norview Marina Cobia Tournament,' and 3rd place in the 2017 'Monarch Cobia Classic.' Let him show you what an incredible day out on the water looks like''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

Half Day Trip – Bay Fishing (PM) • 2 adultsFrom the get go Captain Mike and his crewmate were helpful and friendly. I took my 13 year old son and we are both novice fisherman. They were more than patient with is and extremely helpful when the fish started biting. Even though the fish were not showing up at the start I could tell Captain Mike was doing everything he could to find us a good location…. and when he did, BOOM the fish if a lifetime for my son. He is still talking about it. We will be back for sure. The boat was clean and steady. A+ experience. These guys known what they are doing and they do it well.

Full Day Trip – Bay Fishing • 2 adultsIt was a relatively quiet day on the bay ... pulled in a few Spanish mackerel while trolling but the sheepshead weren't biting. Around mid-day, the captain George and mate Tanner spotted a nice cobia and hooked into it ... my son Nolan fought it in and with Tanner on the net, landed it in the boat. That was pretty awesome! Shortly after that, we spotted and hooked into another cobia ... my turn now. After another exciting battle we got this one in the boat as well. Two really nice cobia (about 40# each) really made our day!! George and Tanner ran a great boat ... friendly, knowledgeable, and hard working. George also cleaned our catch when we got back to the marina and we were happy to be leaving with two coolers full of filets to take home. I would definitely recommend this charter and look forward to going out with Islander Sportfishing again on our next trip to the area.

Half Day Trip – Bay Fishing (PM) • 2 adults • 1 childThese guys are nothing less than amazing. I brought my 6 year old out to hopefully catch some fish. George and Tanner treated him like a king. We had great luck based off of knowledge of the area. If you don’t book with these guys you are truly missing out. I’d recommend them with the upmost respect. Tight lines all day and my son is still glowing and talking about his experience 5 hours later. Thank you guys!! A memory I’ll keep forever.

2 Hour Trip–Cruise/Inshore Fishing • 2 adultsCPT George and his crew went the extra mile to ensure my son and I had a truly memorable experience for our first fishing charter. Seeing that we were novice fishermen, CPT George and his mate took the time to explain to us the different types of rods, reels, baits, etc., used to saltwater fish. Because of this experience my son caught his first Flounder and cannot wait for our next excursion with CPT George.
