Welcome Aboard !!! Escape to the world of fun and excitement, meeting or exceeding your expectations ... the wonderful world of saltwater sportfishing. Depending on the tide, you will fish the ledges of Buzzards Bay, the world-famous Sow & Pigs reef off Cuttyhunk Island, the holes of the Elizabeth Islands, the rips in Vineyard Sound off the magnificent cliffs of Gay Head (Aquinnah), the waters of Nantucket Sound, and along the white sandy beaches of Martha's Vineyard, the home of keeper bass and chopper blues. You'll be fishing a half-hour from the dock!

So whether it's soft water, back eddys, inlets, from flats to rips, whatever it takes ... we'll put you on fish! Captain Bob DeMello is extremely knowledgeable and vigilant, and ready to make your fishing experience extraordinary. He uses various proven techniques from wire-line trolling to jigging to spin-casting near shore, sometimes employing live-baits, drifting, or chunking. We also do light tackle spin casting "in tight" to shoreline. If you wish to bring your own fly rods and tackle, you are welcome to do so, just let me know in advance. The trip is tailored to your fishing pleasure and fun.

Family outings are also encouraged! Please check our Other Services page for information on functions and charters for parties of up to 4 people. All trips require a deposit equal to half the amount of the charter price, which is non-refundable and non-transferable. Cash balance is due at the beginning of the trip. See our Charter Services/Rates page for rates, terms, and conditions.
