Party Boat Striped Bass

Striper fishing has become one of the most sought-after fish for anglers. Anglers catch many bass that are sometimes as large as 30, 40 or even 50 pounds, providing some of the most exciting fishing that you can find.
Those with their own boats can get in on this fast action, but those without boats must rely on the kindness of others or pay for a charter or head boat. Of the two, a head boat is less expensive. While a charter boat is less crowded, there is no reason why a head boat trip cannot be equally enjoyable.

Bower's Beach Flounder Action Continues

Shirley aboard the Reliable II said that Sunday morning started off with lots of Headboater enthusiasts who had one thing on their mind — winning the Reliable’s June Mega Monster Cash Pot Contest.

The June Mega Monster Cash Pot had jumped to $149.00. Several flounder shorts were caught and a heartbreaking almost close legal flounder was caught by Fay Griffith, which was 18 1/4″ long and thrown back. MVC-005S(2)

Not a one croaker was caught or even seen. Finally, cries of “Fish On” broke the silence. Fay Griffith from Seaford, Delaware hooked into a big one. At first, she thought it was a skate, because it did not want to come off of the bottom. Continue reading Bower's Beach Flounder Action Continues

Ocean City Party Boat Fishing

I have to admit, I’m one of the crowd. I have been fishing on party boats since I was a kid, and I hope I never loose my passion for hugging the rails. Continue reading Ocean City Party Boat Fishing

Crisfield Party Boat Fishing

A couple of party boats run out of Crisfield on the Chesapeake’s Lower Eastern Shore. These boats run during the fishing season for a variety of species, depending on what’s running.

Charter boats in Crisfield will also occasionally act as pseudo head boats and promote make-up or mixed charter trips to help small groups of anglers cut costs. They will mix and match individuals for a day on the water. It seems this happens more often than not during the Chesapeake striper run. To find out about getting in on charter make-up parties, check with the local marina. Continue reading Crisfield Party Boat Fishing
