CAPT. DAVE’S GUARANTEE:  I wish I could guarantee a limit of fish for every guest angler for every single trip…but what I do promise you is that I will try my very best for you, on and off the water!  I keep my boat and gear well maintained, and I prospect spots before your charter to try very hard to put you on the fish.  I guarantee you my best… every single trip!

 

Charter Season: April-December Note: (time with the best bite- April-July)

The type of fishing available for charter will vary on the time of the Season and where the fish are biting. For more details, contact Captain Dave.

Species of Fish

(Note:  This all depends on the season and what is biting):

  • Rock Fish aka Striped Bass (MD) – April to December caught trolling, chumming, live lining & jigging
  • Bottom Fish (MD) – May to December primarily bait fishing (bottom rigs). Includes White Perch, Spot, Croaker (depending on availability)
  • Bluefish (MD)
  • Cobia (VA)
  • Flounder (VA)
  • Spanish Mackeral (MD & VA)- August to October high speed trolling with small spoons

 

Methods of Fishing:

  1. Chumming: fishing while the boat is anchored and using chopped up bait to attract fish to the area of water near the boat by creating a chum slick (bait residue leading to the boat). (Rockfish)
  2. Trolling: multiple rods are in the water and dragged by the momentum of the boat driving at a low speed. Planer boards are normally used to help spread the lines allowing maximum number of lures in the water without tangling. This method also ensures our rigs are in clean water without disturbance. (Rockfish)
  3. Bottom Fishing: the anglers each hold a rod and bouncing the sinker and hooks along bottom.  Contact with bottom allows us to catch fish that school on the bay floor.  (White Perch, Spot, Flounder)
  4. Live Lining: when fresh, live fish (usually Spot or White Perch) is used as bait to attract larger fish like Rockfish.
  5. Jigging: using lures known as jigs to catch fish.  Artificial movement is imparted to the jig by the rod motion attracting fish to strike the lure. (Rockfish)
