I love to include a fishing experience in my travel plans and I’m glad I booked this one! We drove from Boston and it was worth every penny. All the cards were dealt perfectly. Great weather, great bait fish, and great Stripers. We had two in our party and caught at least a dozen of these prehistoric monsters. We started out with a 35 in her and they only got bigger from there. Captain was a great guide and found a great spot that day. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

All the stars lined up for our trip on Saturday. Leslie is an experienced fisherman (woman) who handled the rod well. Both her and Matt adapted to fishing with live bait quickly, and the results speak for themselves. It was great having them onboard!

Capt Dana was a pleasure to be with! Well equipped and knowledgeable we enjoyed a morning snagging live bait and fishing for stripers. Me and my two boys had a great time and plan to be back.

It was great having PJ, Tucker, and Henry on board yesterday. They made the most of a cool summer day in the LAG Time. They are seasoned anglers already and made it look easy!

Dana is an amazing captain. He is extremely knowledgeable of the land and sea in the area. He put on the fish constantly. Best striped bass trip I’ve been on.

It was great having Justin an Nick on board. Justin is an experienced fisherman and showed his stuff early on. Nick was not as experienced, but caught in quickly and boated some nice fish. Justin says Nick I’d hooked now!

Nice day on the water today, hot with barely a breeze. We found plenty of bait early on and put them to work along the shore of Manchester, magnolia, and in Gloucester harbor. We had several interested bass, but were only able to coax one to the boat.
