Fishing, crabbing, and clamming in the local bays and waterways has been a part of my life for nearly five decades, starting when I was just able to walk. I first took the helm of our 15-foot Boston Whaler at the age of 13, and today I navigate a 21-foot Sailfish center console. My fishing year usually kicks off in the spring targeting Stripers and Tog, followed by flounder season in May. As summer arrives and temperatures rise, I venture beyond the bay to the nearby reef areas, aiming for flounder and sea bass during their seasons. When bunker schools make an appearance, I enjoy snagging and dropping baits for sharks and cobia. With the arrival of cooler waters, striped bass become the focus again, with trips planned around tidal movements. Migratory fish typically show up in December, so bundle up and get ready to catch some impressive fish.
Our family had an amazing fishing outing with Jeff. Bringing along our 7-year-old granddaughter, Jeff made sure she had a fantastic time by assisting her with the fishing rod and ensuring she got to see each of her catches close-up. Together, we landed six flounder along with several other fish species. Jeff communicated well throughout and scheduled the trip considering optimal conditions. I highly recommend Jeff for anyone looking for a personalized fishing adventure. Jeff made our flounder fishing trip in the morning truly memorable! Thanks again, Richard. We look forward to seeing you next summer!

Beat the summer heat and avoid the busy Back Bay traffic by heading out onto the ocean, where you never know what might appear. Our trips focus on nearshore wrecks and reefs, targeting flounder and sea bass, but we’re always open to unexpected catches. Depending on the conditions, you may encounter mahi, cobia, or sharks along the way. Departure times are flexible, with trips lasting 6 to 8 hours or as long as you want to fish before calling it a day.
