About Your Trip

There's exciting action waiting for you in the costal waters off Long Island! On this trip, Captain Stephen will take you out trolling for Striped Bass, Bluefish, and Flounder—all great fish for beginners and pros alike. When a big Striper grabs your line, get ready for a fight! They love to take long runs and can spool a reel in a hurry.

Captain Stephen's 31' Eastern is the perfect boat for this trip. Holding up to 6 anglers and equipped with a 330-HP Volvo engine, plus a GPS navigation system, fishfinder, a more, there's no better vessel out there. She also features a restroom, kitchen, A/C, and refrigerator to keep you and your party comfortable through the entire trip.

For your trip with Captain Stephen, you're encouraged to bring along your own angling equipment. If you don't have your own, Stephen can provide you with equipment for a separate fee. Stephen will provide you with drinks and snacks as well as your fishing license for the day. Get out there and see what Long Island has to offer!

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is home to thousands of quality, vetted fishing, hunting, and other outdoor sports guides across the US and beyond. Our mission is to Unlock the Outdoors by making it quick and easy to book the trip of a lifetime every time with our Damn Good Guides.

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
