Our Nite Fishing Trips will focus on Bluefish and bottom fishing. While we start our chum slick and wait for the Bluefish to react, you can drop to the bottom and find some tasty ling for the dinner table. Once the Bluefish get feeding, it's one of the most exciting trips on a head boat that you will experience. Multiple hook ups around the boat, on bait & jigs.
Hot Dogs, burgers, pizza, snacks & drinks are available
Air Conditioned / Heated Galley for your comfort
