Patent Pending Charters 

Unbelievable day out with Patent Pending. It was a scorcher at 100 degrees but we still landed 28 fish in record time thanks to the Captain John's own custom-invented lures. He literally designed the gear he fishes with, and it worked like a charm. Boat was clean, ride was comfortable, and the both Captain John and Rick were awesome with our boys, teaching them what to look for and getting them hooked on fishing for good. Our neighborhood had a feast tonight. Highly recommend — we're already booking again for the fall!

Capt John and First Mate Ronnie were absolutely wonderful. They were very flexible, most kind, and were filled with good stories and funny jokes. It was a very warm day, but the boat was super clean, spacious, and had AC. Capt John and Ronnie got us out on the water and on the fish without delay. We were fortunate to catch our limit of Bluefish and the Capt treated us to pan searing some of the catch for us to taste. It was an unexpected extra touch. Will def schedule another trip!!!! EC

Within the first hour of the trip, we had catched four good size strippers. We hit our limit within 3 hrs of the journey. John and Rick are extremely knowledgeable about the bay, fishing techniques and provided clear guidance when we needed them. Also, They are amicable, polite and caring. One of our anglers was feeling sea sick and they made sure he was feeling OK. The vessel is in extremely good shape and very well matained. We returned to the dock early as we hit our fishing quota. Something to keep in mind, is that Maryland regulations dont allow for more than 1 legal size stripper per person. We will definetely be returning customers! Thank you Capt John and Rick for an amazing time. 🛥️🎣

Capatin John and his first mate, Rick, are fish whisperers! Our family of four caught our limit quickly! He has a beautiful lure combination that enabled us to bring in two bluefish at a time. Then, after all the fun, Captain John cooked some of our catch for us right there on the boat. It was delicious! The next time we charter a fishing trip, we will be aboard Patent Pending with John and Rick. We can’t wait!

We had fish on the line 5 minutes after casting. All three of us caught our limit of blues. The captain handled the boat perfectly and the mate was always there to help with anything needed. It was a great trip out and will happily book with them again.

this was our first chartered fishing trip and I am glad we chose to go out with CAPT John. We were able to limit out with in 46 mins. He took us directly to the spot and we had a blast.

i try to fish with my boys every nee location we end up in and we were very happy with Captain John, First Mate Ron and the beautiful boat. It was a very nice trip and me and the boys had a great time. Captain John has a great sense of humor and makes the trip a lot of fun. Hightly recommend!

We were a crew of 4, 3 of which inexperienced. Captain John and First mate Rick were fantastic and made this a truly rememberal time! Easy process, relaxing time, and most importantly lots of fish!! Thank you gentlemen and we will be back

This was our second time with Captain John and his first mate. They were so great to ride with again! We had a beautiful day on the water, caught lots of fish and had the best crab cake lunch! I could recommend them more highly.

they maybe old school but they got the tricks to get the job done. Actually, it's just hard core experience! Plus a wonderful Crab cake lunch. The Captain even fiedup some of my catch. Fresh bluefish is amazing.
