About Your Trip

The offshore waters out of Atlantic City reach some of the most productive big game fishing grounds on the entire East Coast, and Captain Ricky runs the full range of trip lengths to match your group's ambition and time on the water. Whether you are committing to a serious pre-dawn day trip or signing on for an extended overnight adventure deep in the blue water, the target list and the dedication behind the wheel stay consistent across every option.

The 14-hour day trip departs at 3 AM and returns to the dock by 4 PM, putting your group on offshore water during the most productive hours of the day. Tuna, marlin, and mahi-mahi are the primary targets on the day trip, three of the Atlantic's most sought-after offshore species that keep the cockpit busy and the rods loaded when conditions line up. Captain Ricky and his crew work the offshore grounds with purpose, adjusting trolling spreads, targeting temperature breaks, and reading the water to put your group in front of fish across the full 14 hours.

For those who want more time offshore and a deeper big game experience, the 26 and 32-hour overnight options open up the full target list considerably. Departing at 7 to 8 AM, these trips reach water that the day trips simply cannot access and stay out long enough to fish multiple species across changing conditions. Swordfish join the target list on the overnights alongside tuna, marlin, and mahi, and the extended time on the water means your group can adjust the game plan as the bite develops and take advantage of whatever else decides to cooperate out in the deep. Overnight trips reward patience and commitment with the kind of offshore fishing that is genuinely difficult to replicate on a shorter timeline.

Captain Ricky runs a 60-foot sportfisher built from the keel up for serious offshore work at this level. A fighting chair handles the heavy lifting when big fish are on the line. The flybridge gives Captain Ricky the elevated vantage point needed to read the water, track birds, and spot color changes that signal fish. Outriggers run a full and properly spaced trolling spread, while GPS, fishfinder, and radar keep the boat on productive water around the clock. Below deck, the boat is equipped with a full kitchen, refrigerator, ice box, bed, and multimedia system, giving your group everything needed to stay comfortable, well-fed, and rested across a long day or a full overnight on the water. The accommodations are functional and well-appointed, designed to make the extended trips as manageable as they are memorable.

Regardless of which trip length your group chooses, the offshore grounds off Atlantic City are capable of producing world-class encounters with some of the Atlantic's most impressive game fish. Captain Ricky puts in the preparation and the hours to give every group the best possible shot at a productive and memorable time on the water.

Book your day trip or overnight adventure with Captain Ricky today and come experience big game fishing off the Jersey Shore the right way.
