If you've ever fished New England's inshore waters, you've probably caught Flounder. Although they're not as big as Stripers or as tough as Bluefish, these flatfish are an absolute blast to catch, and are fun for anglers of all levels. In addition, they're excellent table fare and have flaky white meat that's simple to prepare. Ask Captain Bob for his favorite recipes!

About Your Trip

If you've ever fished New England's inshore waters, you've probably caught Flounder. Although they're not as big as Stripers or as tough as Bluefish, these flatfish are an absolute blast to catch, and are fun for anglers of all levels. In addition, they're excellent table fare and have flaky white meat that's simple to prepare. Ask Captain Bob for his favorite recipes!

You'll be catching these strange-looking flatfish using bottomfishing techniques. Flounder will hit both
baits and lures if they're placed properly, and Captain Bob is a real expert when it comes to hooking this species. He'll set you up with the right tackle for the job and make sure you're on top of the fish!

On the day of the trip, you'll head out aboard his 25' Maycraft center console. She's pushed by a 200-HP Suzuki engine, so you'll be off the dock and on the fish fast. She also features a full kit of electronics to maximize your success, plus live wells for bait, ice boxes for your keepers, and more!

Captain Bob will bring everything you need to reel in a prize, including rods, reels, tackle, and bait. To maximize your experience, bring polarized sunglasses, proper clothing, a hat, sunscreen, and most importantly, your Fishing License. Get ready to have a blast!

About Your Guide

Profile photo of Captain Experiences guide Bob

Bob J.

Independent Guide
From pulling lobster pots as a kid to getting his captain's license and running charters as an adult, fishing and the ocean have always been huge parts of Captain Bob's life and livelihood. His grandfather was the one who first got him interested, and he's never looked back since. In case you're wondering about the origin of Captain Bob's boat, he also used to work at Disney World!

Captain Bob and his mate Rocko showed us the best day of fishing we could have asked for.
They showed my son , niece and nephew how to bring in the stripers and that we did.
Nice conversations, personable guys, highly recommend this trip.
