Booked with Cpt Skip at the last minute for a guy’s trip down to the beach. I was a little skeptical booking a fishing charter through an online reservation system, but Skip was fantastic from the start. Immediately after booking I received prompt and professional communication from Skip. Over the next couple days we hammered out the details including species to target and preferred methods of fishing. Once the day of our trip arrived Skip continued to impress. He was punctual, outgoing and had an impressive knowledge of the local waters. Skip was fantastic with my buddy who had very little fishing knowledge and demonstrated a genuine desire to make sure he had a great day and (pardon the pun) get hooked on fishing. In the end the bite was not super hot (not skip’s fault). We managed a few rockfish in the 20-24” range, which are a blast on medium-light tackle. Overall I would highly recommend Skip to anyone looking for a few memorable hours fishing the waters around OC. I plan on booking again with Skip later this year for a trip with the wife and kids.

This is the Captain for you.  I’ve chartered fishing boats in and around Bethany (and other places) and Capt. Skip is up there with the very best!  Cannot recommend him more. Parking, pickup and drop off were so easy.  The “Lost” in “Lost Sailor” isn’t descriptive of Capt. Skip — he thoroughly knows the area and where the fish are.  And, this is important for ppl with kids, he’s very patient, answers questions, helps to your level of fishing experience.  Yeah, we all want an authentic Captain (which he is) but I’ve had Captains who are terrible being patient with kids, answering questions, etc.  I rarely leave reviews on sites but for Skip I had to.  Before we were even off the boat my son said to him, “we’ll do this again.”  That said it all.  Also, I’m a terrible fisherman and I got MANY more bites/catches with Skip than ever before.  If you’re scanning this site/these reviews to choose a fishing Captain to spend time on the water with: go with Skip!

Marvelous early season fishing trip! I met up with a couple college football buddies for a fishing trip in the Rehoboth beach area and Captain Skip made sure it was a memorable experience. Additionally, he was an excellent tour guide as well. He set us up for success from the start and we were all able to bring in a rockfish aka striper. Would highly recommend due to his experience and professionalism!

What a great time! Skip knows the areas and more importantly works hard to please his clients. He’s a great conversationist and has a positive attitude always. If you are an experienced angler he can take you to more challenging places. BUT….he will take the time and effort for beginners and those of all experience levels . Call Skip! You won’t be disappointed .
