  Fantastic Fishing Trip - Highly Recommend!

  6 hr Morning Trip on July 17, 2026 • 6 adults

  We had a great time fishing with Captain and his mate! They were both friendly, professional, and made the trip enjoyable from start to finish. The captain's experience really showed and we felt safe with him. While the boat was comfortable and stable, the toilet could have used some cleaning, but that didn't take away from an otherwise excellent experience. Overall, this was a fantastic fishing trip, and I would absolutely recommend this captain to friends and family. If you're looking for someone who knows where the fish are and provides a great experience on the water, you won't be disappointed.

  Best trip ever!

  6 HR Afternoon Trip on May 22, 2026 • 4 adults

  My wife and I were visiting our daughter and her boyfriend and wanted to take them fishing out in the bay. The captain and crew were amazing and put us on fish right away. Caught LOTS of fish. Several times we had multiple people catching fish at the same time and often had 2 fish on the same pole! The next day after fishing, my daughter told me that her arms were sore from catching so many fish. It was one of the best fishing trips I've ever taken.

  Great afternoon on the Chesapeake

  6 HR Afternoon Trip on September 15, 2026 • 2 adults

  Captain Derek had a conflict, however he was able to get a replacement from another local Captain to fill in. The First Mate was fantastic. He fillet our catch, and even took some to the Dock of the Bay Restaurant to cook it up for us. Fantastic way to spend our afternoon!

  caught fish, even in bad weather

  6 HR Afternoon Trip on September 21, 2026 • 6 adults • 3 children

  while most boats were off the water due to high winds, we went fishing. found a very productive spot in a protected channel and hammer the catfish and perch all afternoon. great crew that ensured we had a blast!

  great experience

  Week night evening trip on July 22, 2026 • 2 adults

  good day on the water, the captain and mate were knowledgeable about the best spots for fishing locally. caught a mix of catfish, rockfish, perch, spot, and even a ray. good atmosphere, learned a lot, and came home with plenty of cleaned fish to eat. would recommend, will look into booking again.
