I knew it was going to be a good trip when I saw the “No Bananas” sign on Doug’s boat. Not only is he a great captain and angler, but he’s a great guy in general.

He put us on some big fish offshore, but my wife got sea sick quickly. He didn’t hesitate to pack up, give her water and a cold towel, and bring us back inshore. We still landed plenty of trout, skipjack, and other fish inshore. A group of dolphins joined in on the action a few times near the boat. I think the best parts were the consistent amount of landed fish, learning from Doug, and exchanging stories with him.

If you’re looking to get your money’s worth and more and also hang out with a guy that you’d probably want to be friends with outside of the trip, then book a trip with Captain Doug—you won’t be disappointed.

We had a group of 4 adults that went fishing with Doug Chason.  He had everything ready to go when we got there and within just a few minutes we were fishing.  Doug filled us in on what was happening in the area re oysters, dredging activity, and many other interesting details.  Our first fish was a 31.5” red.  We caught a couple more but overall the fishing just wasn’t that great the day we went.  Doug kept trying different sites, some different bait, but nothing was biting.  This was our second trip with Doug and next time we are in the area we would hire him again.  The boat was clean and in good working order.  Plenty of power to get us where we wanted to go.  If you are looking for a fishing trip that doesn’t require a skill, Doug tells you what to do and how to do it, then charter with Captain Doug Chason.

Booked a late evening two hour with Captian Doug and found him to be very personable and took to our youngest who had a great time and caught several fish in our short time on the water. Captain Doug is very knowledgeable of the history of his area which is great to see. We were able to go exploring and found some cool things and also go back in time to see and imagine what it may have been like generations ago which I enjoyed and last but not least for a reasonable price we were able to make and experience as a family and even get dinner of fresh sea trout for the family. Would 100% recommend Captian Doug. Give him a call when your in the area as we will again. Thank you Captian Doug

We fished a few good spots. Oyster bars, flats, and we even got to the bridge. It was less than ideal fishing conditions and we still had a blast and caught dozens of trout that fried up great that evening. The Captain knows his stuff. It was a good day.
