Hop aboard with Captain Justin for a high-energy striper hunt through Boston Harbor, the South Shore, and beyond. Born and raised fishing these waters, Captain Justin has racked up local tournament wins and landed multiple striped bass over 50 pounds. His goal? Helping you catch the fish of a lifetime.

Specializing in light tackle action, Justin targets trophy-sized stripers using live mackerel and menhaden caught fresh at the start of each trip. When the bite’s right, he’ll break out topwater
plugs for explosive surface strikes that keep your heart pounding. Whether you're a seasoned angler or brand new to the sport, Justin delivers a dialed-in experience every time.

A U.S. Coast Guard licensed captain with First Aid and CPR certification, Justin runs a fully insured, mobile operation—launching from wherever the bite is hottest: Boston, Cohasset, Scituate, Green Harbor, and more.

Catch and release is encouraged to protect the fishery, but your catch can be cleaned and filleted if you’d like to bring it home. If you're chasing a personal best or just an unforgettable day on the water, Captain Justin is your guy.

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.
