About Your Trip

For anglers chasing a true deep sea adventure, Captain Doug’s overnight offshore trip out of Ocean City, Maryland is the ultimate experience. Running from midnight to midnight, this 24-hour charter gives you the rare opportunity to fish both day and night in some of the most productive waters on the East Coast.

You'll head 30 to 60 miles offshore aboard a powerful 50’ Custom Carolina Buddy Harris, built to handle long hauls and open water
with ease. With brand-new 650 FPT engines, top-of-the-line Garmin electronics, and a seasoned crew that knows these waters inside and out, this trip is all about putting you in the best position to hook into something unforgettable.

Throughout the day, you’ll troll the deep blue for fast-running Yellowfin and Bluefin Tuna, as well as acrobatic White and Blue Marlin. Mahi-Mahi are also frequent visitors in these offshore zones—bright, aggressive, and always a blast to catch on the troll. As the sun sets and the stars come out, the action doesn’t stop. Overnight, you'll have the unique chance to target Swordfish under the cover of darkness using deep dropping techniques—one of the most exciting and rewarding challenges in big game fishing.

To round out your time on the water, deep dropping during daylight hours can also produce delicious deepwater species like Tilefish, adding variety (and flavor) to your catch.

Captain Doug equips the boat with premium Penn and Shimano tackle, including electric reels to make deep drops more manageable and efficient. He and his crew are hands-on the entire time, adjusting spread patterns, fine-tuning bait presentations, and using every ounce of experience to help you land that fish of a lifetime.

Whether you're looking to cross a billfish off your bucket list, chase meat fish into the night, or simply enjoy nonstop action under the stars, this overnight trip delivers the full offshore experience. With a knowledgeable captain, quality equipment, and the time to explore the deep, you’ll have the best possible odds of going home with great stories—and even better fish.

Since first chasing big game fish in 1996, Doug has dedicated the last 15 years to sharing his deep love for fishing with others—and it shows in every detail of the experience he delivers.

Departing from Virginia Beach, you’ll head out on a 50’ Custom Carolina Buddy Harris, fully outfitted in 2023 with brand-new 650 FPT engines

But the action doesn’t stop on deck—just steps away is a climate-controlled cabin packed with creature comforts, including a TV, DVD player, Sirius XM radio, coffee pot, microwave, hot plate, skillet, fridge, and coolers to keep you comfortable between bites. Whether you’re after full-throttle fishing or a laid-back day at sea, Doug offers the perfect balance of both.
