    Great Trip !

    4hr AM Trip – Light Tackle or Fly2 adults

    Fished the morning tide, and although the fish weren’t very cooperative due to the heat wave pushing them into a more nocturnal feeding pattern, it was still a great trip. The boat is perfectly set up for fishing New England waters, and both the fly and spinning gear were top-notch. We explored plenty of beautiful spots loaded with bait and had a few shots and follows, but that’s fishing. I enjoyed the experience enough that I’ve already booked another trip for next year. Highly recommended!

    Big stripers and a great captain!

    4hr AM Trip – Light Tackle or Fly1 adult

    My husband went out with Captain Erik yesterday and came home absolutely thrilled - he said it was the best charter he’s ever been on. Erik was professional from start to finish and incredibly knowledgeable about the fish and local waters. They caught a ton of fish, including some big striped bass! If you’re looking for a charter, book with Erik! Highly recommend!

    Unforgettable Striped Bass Fishing Trip

    4hr AM Trip – Light Tackle or Fly2 adults

    If you are looking for an outstanding day on the water catching Striped Bass Erik is your captain. From the initial communication to the end of the trip Erik was great to work with. Being somewhat new to fishing myself (whilst my 15yr old son was advanced already) Erik took time to explain where we went fishing, what bait to best use for the day, where Stripers might be found and why etc etc. My son had an awesome experience and we managed to catch a total of 10 (!!!) stripers, out of which we could keep 1 (thanks for as well showing us how to properly fillet it). Overall I can highly recommend Erik to everyone (advanced or novice with kids) who wants to spend a great day on the sea!

    Absolutely phenomenal experience.

    Full day – Light tackle or Fly2 adults

    My boyfriend and I booked this trip for our late anniversary get away, to get the experience with striper fishing. Absolutely hands down an amazing day and experience with Captain Erik he definitely knows his way around the bay and makes an enjoyable boating experience while catching some monster strippers and mackerels for the live bait. We would definitely recommend booking with Captain Erik for any fishing skill level whether it be beginner or experienced fisherman because whether or not if you know what your are doing he will still take the to show it how it is done. Thank you again Captain Erik.
