About Your Trip

Join Captain Pete for a light tackle fishing trip on the productive inshore waters surrounding Milford, Connecticut. These trips focus on two of the Northeast's most popular game fish, Striped Bass and Bluefish, and are suitable for anglers of all skill levels.

Fishing Connecticut's shoreline, harbors, reefs, and nearshore structure, you'll target Stripers and Blues using a variety of effective techniques tailored to current conditions. Depending on the season, tides, and feeding activity, you may fish with live bait, artificial lures, or even fly fishing gear to pursue these hard-fighting species.

The waters off Milford are well known for their seasonal runs of Striped Bass and Bluefish, providing excellent opportunities to experience some of the best inshore fishing Long Island Sound has to offer. Whether you're hoping to feel the powerful run of a Bluefish or target trophy-sized Stripers, these waters consistently attract anglers from across the region.

Captain Pete provides all fishing equipment, including rods, reels, tackle, fly fishing gear, live bait, and lures. Drinks are also included, so all you need to bring are your favorite snacks, a valid Connecticut fishing license, and weather-appropriate clothing.

Trip departure times can vary based on weather, tides, and seasonal conditions to help maximize your time on productive water. Captain Pete will recommend the best start time for your trip while remaining as flexible as possible to accommodate your schedule.
