Captain Rick has been fishing the Merrimack River area for 25 years. He started surfcasting and then purchased his first boat which grew to his current vessel, a 38' Northern Bay with a big stable platform to fish from.

    We did this part of a bachelor party. It was a little choppy out there and they still got us on the fish and had a great time in the process.

    Striped Bass and Much More!

    4 Hour – Bass Trips • 4 adults

    This experience with Captain Rick and First Mate Rick was absolutely fantastic! The trip was much more than fishing, it was the complete ocean experience. We started off by casting out our own lines to catch some bait fish in preparation for the angler extravaganza; catching a monster striped bass. As the bait fish storage tank filled up, we headed to find some stripers where we were greeted by a wonderful whale watching experience. The crew was kind enough to let us stop and enjoy the beautiful views of a playful juvenile humpback whale. As the whale moved on we turned back to the original mission of hooking a monster bass. The crew brought us to a fantastic location where every single member of the party caught at least 2 striped bass to complete the experience. Beyond the fishing, the crew was light hearted, attentive, and ensured both experienced anglers and beginners had a fantastic time. We will certainly be booking with FV Emme Charters again!

    Thank you Tom for your kind words. I wish we could take credit for the whale show but as they say “rather be lucky then good” Glad you enjoyed your time on Emme!
