With the cooler water temperature setting in for Fall we have transitioned to more bottom Fishing with good catches of black Seabass, trigger fish, founder and other bottom species…
And there is still good king mackerel and red drum fishing Inshore… There is still good mahi and tuna fishing offshore. We will be starting our nearshore bluefin tuna fishing trips starting in November.

Had a great windmill trip sunday, limit of flounder and cobia, with some seabass as well. The cobia are starting to act normal after spawning through the past few weeks, with good catches (5+ fish per day) the past few days. Triggers and flounders are also starting to heat up inshore for us.

The preseason Cobia bite remains on fire. 10 days left until harvest season opens. We've caught double digit fish for the past few days straight!
Have a seabass trip tomorrow. Bite for them is still great. Flounder have shown up so we should be on a good flounder bite as well

This time of year in Virginia Beach there is still great fishing to be had with offshore deep dropping and swordfishing along with some tuna & wahoo around. Inshore is still catching Spanish mackerel and red drum along with a speckled trout puppy drum and striper are showing up in the creeks in Inlets.

    My husband, brother-in-law, and father had an incredible time with Kaleb! I planned the trip as a Father’s Day outing, and they all had an absolute blast. They haven’t stopped talking about it and are already asking when they can book their next trip with him! Kaleb was personable, accommodating, and communicative from the moment the trip was booked. He made everyone feel comfortable and ensured they had an unforgettable experience on the water. His knowledge, professionalism, and laid-back personality made for the perfect day. If you’re looking for a fun, memorable fishing charter with a captain who truly cares about his guests having a great time, I highly recommend booking with Kaleb. We’ll definitely be back!
