About Your Trip

Step aboard for a versatile fishing trip that can take you from the protected back bays all the way out to the offshore canyons. Whether you’re looking for a quick half day on the water or a full day chasing bigger fish, these trips are built to match your goals and the conditions.

You’ll be fishing aboard a 35’ custom sportfishing boat with a long track record on Long Island waters. With decades of charter and commercial experience behind it—including multiple top finishes in Freeport’s Hudson Angler Shark Tournament—this is a proven platform designed to fish hard and comfortably.

What You’ll Be Targeting

Trips can be tailored to target a variety of Northeast favorites including striped bass, fluke, black seabass, and porgy. Depending on the trip length and conditions, you may fish inshore waters or run offshore to expand your options and target larger fish.

The Experience

Half day trips are a great way to get out on the water and fish either the bays or nearshore ocean (typically within 8 miles). These trips run 4 hours and are perfect for families, first-timers, or anyone looking to squeeze in a few solid hours of fishing.

Full day trips open things up, giving you more range and flexibility to travel up to 20 miles offshore in search of better fishing opportunities. With more time on the water, you’ll be able to cover more ground and dial in the bite.

All trips include rods, reels, bait, tackle, ice, and fishing licenses, so you can show up ready to fish.

The Boat & Setup

The boat is equipped with everything needed for a comfortable and capable day on the water, including modern electronics, custom gear, and a large fish hold for the day’s catch. Inside, you’ll find a cabin with seating, sleeping space, a restroom, and climate control, making it a great option in a wide range of conditions.

Safety is a top priority, with full offshore safety equipment onboard including life rafts, survival gear, and communication systems.

Good to Know

Trips are private for up to 6 passengers, with flexible departure times depending on the trip. The crew works hard to make sure everyone has a great experience, and a 20% gratuity is customary.

Whether you’re looking to fill the cooler, chase a specific species, or just enjoy a day on the water with your crew, Captain Pete will put together a trip that makes the most of your time
