Highly recommend!

3 Hour Trip – Back Bay Shark Trip2 adults

We booked Shore Chaos last year for his flounder trip and this year for his shark trip. We caught 7 sharks and 1 sting ray this year and had a blast. Captain James takes care of everything including baiting your hooks. He is knowledgeable, funny, and entertaining.

    Couldn’t have asked for a better experience

    2 Hour Trip – Flounder Trip4 adults2 children

    We couldn’t leave the island without giving our grandson a fishing experience. He loves to fish and that is all he talked about all week. With a stroke of luck and some divine intervention, the captain had an opening for a morning 2-hour trip. We honestly didn’t care what he caught. If it swam and had fins, then the little one would be happy. Pap and daddy put in their request and the Captain delivered!!! They all really enjoyed the experience and Captain James has a new little friend. This man has a great personality, he is awesome with the kids, very knowledgeable and entertaining. My husband and I are now planning a flounder trip just for us! We are highly satisfied and it was no effort to give a solid 5 stars.

    Response from Captain

    Thanks Jeanette the group was awesome today. I'm glad the little man enjoyed and big men . Hope to see you again. Captain James

    S tier!!!!

    3 Hour Trip – Back Bay Shark Trip3 adults2 children

    Captain James was fantastic. I highly recommend him if you are looking for a charter. The boat was super clean and we had a lot of room so you didn’t feel packed like sardines. He was super patient, entertaining and engaging with the kids. He answered any of the questions that we had. He is super knowledgeable about the area. We were always catching bait fish while we waited for a shark or a ray to bite. We caught 2 stingrays both fights were filled without of action and moving around the boat. We will be booking another trip with captain James when we come back.

    Amazing day on the water

    4 Hour Trip – Flounder3 adults1 child

    We had such an amazing time with Captain James. His knowledge and experience took us to some really nice spots. We caught a little bit of everything, nothing that we could keep in size range, but we didn't care. Our 12-year-old son had a blast fishing with Captain James. He was very helpful and really cheered us on to catch the big ones. Cannot wait to book another charter with him in the near future for shark. Highly recommend this charter, even if you don't catch anything you will most definitely have a fun time with Captain James and learn a lot about the island.

    Response from Captain

    Thanks Jason I greatly appreciate it. I like to have fun. Hope to see you back soon. Thanks Captain James

    4 Hour Trip – Flounder3 adults

    I had a trip with Shore Chaos on 4/17/26. We wanted to target flounder and the cpt said no problem. Fishing started off slow with just one flounder first thing. Sometimes it goes that way. Just as we were about to head in the fish turned on and we caught three within a ten minute window. Should have booked PM lol. Me and the boys were in town for a three day turkey hunt at Pockomoke State Forest. Cpt took the the time to share his knowledge of the area and give us some pins of where to go. 2/3 of us harvested a bird the next morning. So we not only caught our flounder but also got some bonus turkeys (big ol toms). I would recommend Shore Chaos to anyone, just not the Friday before turkey season, cuz I'll be there next year too.

    James rocks!

    3 Hour Trip – Back Bay Shark Trip3 adults1 child

    Had an awesome trip with our captain James, my son, and my dad. James was knowledgeable, patient, and knew exactly where to find the fish. The highlight was watching my son hook into a shark, with our captain coaching him through the fight. It was an unforgettable day for three generations, and we’ll definitely fish with him again.
