About Your Trip

Captain Wayne invites you to bring your family, friends and business associates to spend a fun filled day fishing aboard his 46′ charter boat! Captain Wayne has a tried and true method for fishing in Chesapeake Bay, with over 50 years of experience and 7500+ trips. He offers half-day trips departing at 5:30 AM and 12:30 PM.

He starts by fishing at the end of May primarily chumming for Rockfish. By the beginning of June
he also uses live lining with spot. Then in mid August Bluefish are mixed in with the Rockfish. Also by this time White Perch and Catfish can be caught by bottom fishing. Unless you ask to catch a specific species we try to catch our limit of Rockfish first and then finish our trip out by catching Perch, Catfish or Bluefish.

Prices include all bait and tackle. You will need to bring food, beverages and coolers large enough to carry home your “catch of the day”.

We had a great time. The fish were not biting but our captain Muscles tried his hardest to put us on fish. The time of year was just not the best for fishing. We did catch a few nice size Rock fish. You can't beat a day on the water fishing with friends. The crew had good conversation and tried multiple spots to get the fish on hooks. We appreciated the effort and the atmosphere....
