I recently had the pleasure of going fishing with Captain Cole Evans and his first mate on a bay fishing trip out of Ocean City, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish! As a 60-year-old angler who enjoys getting back on the water, I was looking for a knowledgeable, professional captain who could deliver a fun, productive day without any hassle — and Captain Cole absolutely delivered.0
From the moment we met at the dock, Captain Cole and his mate were welcoming, organized, and clearly passionate about what they do. They grew up fishing these waters (Chesapeake and Atlantic), and it shows in their expertise. They knew exactly where to go for the best action, explained the different bites and techniques for each species, and kept us on fish the entire time. The boat was clean, safe, and well-equipped, and they were quick to help with rebaiting, unhooking, and making sure everyone was comfortable and having a great time.
We had a fantastic catch — plenty of action and smiles all around. Captain Cole’s easygoing style made it relaxing yet exciting, and his local knowledge turned what could have been an average trip into one of the best fishing outings I’ve had in years. Whether you’re a seasoned fisherman or bringing family for a memorable day, I can’t recommend Following Seas Guide Service highly enough. We’ll definitely be booking again soon!
Thank you, Captain Cole and team — you made it a perfect day on the water! Highly recommended for anyone heading to Ocean City.
