50+ reviews
Born and raised in Montauk, New York, Ben started working on boats at the age of 12 and never looked back. He fished from Montauk's rocky shores as a hard core surfcaster before getting his captains license and moving on to the easier world of boat fishing. Today he's comfortable in every fishery Montauk has to offer. Anything from a short day trip to a canyon overnighter, the Push the Limit crew works hard to keep you happy.

    Awesome Trip

    Half Day Trip – Inshore (PM) • 6 adults

    we had a great time with captain Ben. we had pretty consistent action for the whole afternoon trip, catching 9 striped bass all over 40 inches. he worked hard to get us in the right spot to get bites, and was a good hang in the ride back and forth to the fishing spot

    Reported catch:
    Striped Bass

What's biting with Push The Limit Sportfishing in Montauk

Settle down after a long day on the water to a nice hot bowl of clam chowder. There's even a festival to prove the best variety! Meanwhile, anglers will be focusing on winning the Star Island Striped Bass Tournament.
