About Your Trip

If you’re ready for the ultimate offshore challenge, Captain Ryan’s 13-hour Gulfstream adventure is the trip for you. Running up to 70 miles offshore into the deep, cobalt-blue waters of the Gulfstream, this trip is all about chasing the ocean’s most prized pelagic species—and creating stories you’ll be telling for years.

With over 12 years of professional offshore experience and a lifetime on the water, Captain Ryan has the skill, stamina, and know-how to put you in front of trophy fish. The Gulfstream is home to heavy hitters like Blue and White Marlin, Sailfish, Yellowfin Tuna, Blackfin Tuna, Bigeye Tuna, Wahoo, and Mahi Mahi. These fish hit hard, run fast, and test your strength from the moment they take the bait. Every hookup is a shot at a once-in-a-lifetime catch.

To cover serious ground and raise these pelagics, you’ll be trolling a spread of lures and baits, targeting the temperature breaks, weed lines, and underwater structures where predators feed. Captain Ryan’s boat is fully outfitted for the long haul, with GPS, radar, outriggers, a fishfinder, a live bait well, and a comfortable cabin with a toilet to make the day more enjoyable.

This is a full-day, big-water commitment—designed for anglers who want to push beyond the horizon and test themselves against some of the toughest gamefish on the planet. The trip is for up to 6 anglers, and everything you need is included: rods, reels, tackle, lures, fishing licenses, and the expertise of a skilled first mate (a 15–20% gratuity is customary for their hard work).

After 13 hours on the Gulfstream, you’ll return to the dock with a hard-earned catch and the experience of fishing some of the most productive offshore waters on the East Coast.
