Top-Rated Fishing Charter in Ocean City, New Jersey

I am not an experienced fisherman at all and my 8 year old had never gone before. Landen, our captain, was there to meet us at the dock. He’s just a genuinely great guy and was so great with my son. He was professional, knowledgeable, and kept it real fun. He played music for us and found us great spots to catch flounder and some others. We had an absolute blast and Landen had a lot to do with that. The tide, the wind, and the current were a little odd that day, but Landen still found those fish for us. Thank you so much.
- Greg
Our family had a great time and will definitely be back next summer! Staff was friendly and helpful.
- Jennifer
Great crew and service. Landen did a good job showing the kids how to cast a line. Good value. Highly recommend.
- Jack
I’d highly recommend this to anyone who’s looking for something new to do down the shore. We all had a blast!
- Elisa
