The Chesapeake Bay from Maryland to the Virginia
Capes, the rivers and estuaries that feed it as well as
the adjacent offshore waters of Maryland, Virginia and
North Carolina make up one of the most spectacular
fisheries in the world! Those who have had the
opportunity to fish this special place feel fortunate.
The Chesapeake Bay has one of the largest fish
attracting devices in the world, the Chesapeake Bay
Bridge Tunnel Complex. Add to that the offshore towers
and ship wrecks, near by Inlets, the relatively short
run to the Gulf Stream and you quickly realize why the
Mid-Atlantic coast is considered one of the best places
in the world to fish! This site is designed to assist
you in planning your next Fishing Adventure. It
covers many of the fish you will encounter, inshore and
offshore. The tips link is full of useful information to
help you catch more fish. We have links to some of
the best Marinas, Tackle Suppliers, Charter Boats, and
Fishing Guides in the area. We have quick links to local
weather. The Seafood Recipe forum has some great
ideas for your catch. We have upgraded our
discussion boards. They are a great way to stay in
touch with other local fisherman! Our sponsors

Charter Boats,
Head Boats, Guide Services
Private
charter boats, carry up to 6 anglers for one set fee
on a custom fishing trip either inshore or off. These boats do
mostly trolling, however they do bottom fishing also. Trolling
is where the boat puts out up to 7 lines at varying depths &
lengths and is moving the whole time dragging baits. On a
offshore trip you can catch such species as Blue Marlin, Blue
Fin & Yellow Fin Tuna, Wahoo, Dolphin, King Mackerel, Blue Fish,
Spanish Mackerel. While bottom fishing you can catch Stripers,
Croaker, Spot, Flounder, Trout, Drum, Cobia, Amberjack, Sharks
and Spadefish.
Guides services, specialize in custom trips and
cater to small groups, usually 1 to 3 anglers. This type of
chartering is up close and personal, lots of one on one
instruction from your guide. They offer a hands on experience,
from rod handling to bait rigging. Most guide trips are inshore
but some guides offer offshore trip as well. Guides offer
additional fishing techniques, like saltwater fly-fishing.
Head boats, sometime called party boats, take
30 to 60 fishermen on a bottom or drift fishing trip lasting
from a half day to whole day. Anglers pay on a per-angler bases,
and the boat usually has room for walk ups. The trip includes
bait, tackle, someone to gaff and take your fish off, and great
help when lines break or get tangled. |
