About
Our 3/4 Day fishing charter offers customers an extended opportunity to target our near-shore Saltwater species. We primarily target Striped-Bass and Blues, but with the longer trip we have ample time to pursue Black Sea Bass and Fluke as well. We use a variety of fishing methods: lite tackle top-water, live bait, vertical jigging and trolling. Trolling using the “Tube and Worm” method on Newport’s Reefs is one of the most effective ways possible to target Trophy Striped-Bass. Our boat leaves the dock equipped for any scenario.
