About Your Trip

Hop aboard and experience one of the most exciting ways to enjoy the Chesapeake Bay! Since 1997, this full-service charter has been helping anglers and adventurers make unforgettable memories—whether you’re chasing trophy fish, taking in the Bay’s iconic sights, or customizing the perfect day on the water.

When it comes to fishing, you’ll have plenty of options. The crew is skilled in trolling, live baiting, and light tackle fishing, and whenever conditions allow, they love
to put rods in your hands for some jigging action. Casting and retrieving jigs across the Bay or dropping them vertically into deeper water is not only productive but also provides an exhilarating, hands-on experience that anglers of all levels can enjoy. Depending on the season, you’ll have the chance to target rockfish (striped bass) along with other local favorites.

Your adventure takes place aboard the a 40’ Coast Guard–certified vessel built for comfort, safety, and performance. With a wide 13’ beam, a powerful 575 HP Caterpillar diesel, and top-of-the-line Furuno electronics, she’s fully equipped to put you on the fish. The heated cabin and enclosed head keep you comfortable no matter the weather, while dual fish finders, three chart plotters, and 64-mile radar ensure you’re in the best hands possible.

Trips are designed for groups of up to six anglers and run Saturday through Monday only, making them perfect for weekend getaways or quick escapes from the daily grind. The crew provides all the latest rods, reels, tackle, bait, and licenses—you just need to bring your personal items, snacks, drinks (beer is fine, but no bottles or liquor), and a cooler to take home your catch. Oh, and leave the bananas at home—seriously, they’re bad luck on board!

Don’t forget to show appreciation for your hardworking first mate—20% is the customary tip for making your day on the water safe, successful, and unforgettable. Whether you’re out to hook that bucket-list rockfish, enjoy a family sightseeing cruise, or customize your own Chesapeake Bay adventure, the crew is ready to make it happen.
