Rates/Trip Descriptions
INSHORE
We offer an introduction to ground fishing through our 4 hour inshore trips. These trips mostly target our native ground fish that are found on the inshore ledges.
Inshore trips offer a taste of ground fishing off the coast of Maine without the 30 mile ride. They are perfect for beginners, bachelor/bachelorette parties, young families, people prone to sea sickness and cruise ship passengers.
Booking a 4 hour trip with us leaves time in the day to explore the historic port of Portland or head to the beach.

This price is for the boat for up to 6 passengers.

SHARK
We offer an 8 hour custom shark charter generally starting around August 1st and continuing until late September. Most fishing takes place from 15-25 miles off shore depending on where the best conditions exist. All bait, tackle and instruction are provided . We use Penn 50 class rods and reels and stand up gear.
The primary shark catch is the blue shark which can be up to 300 lbs. The ultimate goal though is the mako, thresher or porbeagle shark.
All of these are attracted to our 5 mile chum slick. We strongly recommend catch and release.

OFFSHORE GROUND FISHING
This trip consists of an 8 hour custom ground fish charter for up to 6 passengers. All rods , tackle, bait and instruction is provided. All fish are filleted and packaged for you to take home.
We will be fishing up to 20 miles off shore in 200-350 ft of water. We catch cod, haddock, pollack, cusk and hake. Some anglers prefer bait while some use the classic “cod jigs”. Both are very effective. These are our most successful trips and often provide close up sightings of whales (humpback, fin back, and minke), dolphins, and the giant blue fin tuna.
We also offer a 6-hour offshore trip.
