Awesome day on the water in Hampton! Started with surf casting, then trolling and bottom fishing. Landed a monster 39-inch Striped Bass after a great fight. Quality over quantity for sure.

Action-packed day from the get-go! I took Stacey and their crew out for a summer fishing adventure with Central New Hampshire Guides. We set off early in the morning from Hampton Beach, ready to tackle the inshore waters. The weather couldn't have been better - clear conditions all day, perfect for spotting fish and enjoying our time on the water. Once the stage was set, we got down to business. I mixed things up, using a variety of techniques to give us the best shot at landing some fish. We started with some surf casting, then moved on to trolling, and even did some bottom fishing. Hampton NH is a great spot for this kind of variety - you never know what you might catch here. The highlight of our day came when we hooked into a monster Striped Bass. After a good fight, we managed to land a 39-inch beauty. That's the kind of catch that makes a trip memorable! We wrapped up our 6-hour expedition with smiles all around. While we didn't land a boatload of fish, that one big Striper made the whole day worthwhile. It just goes to show that in fishing, quality can definitely trump quantity.

Hot bite and happy crew! I had the pleasure of taking Kuanhao and their crew out on the water with Central New Hampshire Guides for a day of offshore fishing in Hampton, NH. The weather was perfect, with partly cloudy skies throughout the day, and the water conditions at Hampton Beach were ideal for our adventure. Once the stage was set, we got to work using a variety of techniques, including bottom fishing, trolling, and drift fishing. While we didn't stick any trophies, the crew had a great time and we made the most of the day on the water. The location proved to be a reliable spot, and the techniques we employed allowed us to stay active and engaged throughout the trip. We wrapped up the outing with smiles all around, having enjoyed the beautiful scenery and the camaraderie of a successful day on the water.

We had an extra spot on the boat yesterday, so Gunnar (our mate) asked if he could bring his grandfather along with Gunnar might not understand, even though I'm sure he loved having his grandfather beside him all day long . I guarantee you at some point his grandfather was thinking it wasn't about the excellent fishing , But the time that he got to spend with his grandson doing something that they both thoroughly enjoyed discussing the decades that Gun has to enjoy. now that's for the other bunch of yards Brent, Dickie, Mike, Dennis, and myself when I told them as the fishing was so incredible that we should raise our minimum limit to 19 inches to harvest more meat per fish. They thought I was crazy.But as the fish continued to come over the rail and consistent fashion with plenty of what we call Haddilax ! nice big Haddock we were quite comfortable catching our limit and everyone went home with 2 gallons stuffed of delicious fillets still in and under the allotted time.The only negative to this time of season Gaddock fishing is so consistent is1.that you most of you have jobs that don't allow you to have time off during the week so there's not enough days for everybody to get out2. that mother nature doesn't know that Saturday and Sunday are irrelevant in her cycle . In summery ...wink...if you have the opportunity, I will be doing Walk On charters during the week when weather is perfect to go reach out in a private message or a text or call me. I may be adding a Walk On charter button to the website if it takes off.Offering discounts for multiple Walk On tickets purchasedregardless of who you go with the fishing is pretty good right now. If you wanna catch some haddock to have delicious dinners and make some memories with those you love please .Even if you don't go with me reach out to the person you like go fish with them have a good time put down the screens for a day.
Heading out on the water for an Inshore Fishing Adventure with Central New Hampshire Guides was just what we needed on this beautiful September day. This time of year, the waters around Hampton Beach really come alive, and it's an ideal time to target a variety of inshore species. With partly cloudy skies and a comfortable breeze, the weather was perfect for a day of fishing. As we set out, we had a great group of four anglers ready to put their skills to the test. We deployed a mix of techniques, from deep sea fishing and jigging to trolling and heavy/light tackle, in search of the day's catch. The bite was a little slow to start, but we kept at it, working the local inshore spots where we knew the fish would be holding. It wasn't long before the rods started bending, and we started bringing in some nice Haddock. The fish were putting up a good fight, keeping us on our toes, but the crew was dialed in and quickly landing them. While we didn't manage to hook into any big sharks like Jan was hoping for, the action was still exciting, and we had a great time on the water. The beautiful New Hampshire coastline provided the perfect backdrop as we worked the inshore waters. If you're looking to experience some of the best inshore fishing New Hampshire has to offer, be sure to book your trip with Central New Hampshire Guides. Captain Jeff and the crew know these waters inside and out and can put you on the fish, whether you're after Haddock, sharks, or anything else swimming in these productive inshore areas.

So don't miss your chance to get out on the water and create some incredible memories. Book your New Hampshire Fishing Charters | Inshore Adventures today!

I booked a private charter with Jeffrey 4 weeks prior to the planned fishing trip. About 1 week before, I confirmed our reservation. The night before, I confirmed our reservation again. The morning of, Jeffrey let me know that he double booked us and left us on the dock. This was a birthday fishing trip that we planned this whole trip from Dallas around and I was incredibly upset that this happened. I understand we are all human and we make mistakes, but this was a pretty big one from my point of view. The local community at Al Gauron and Eastmans came through at the literal last minute, so keep this in mind when deciding who to book with. *edit* Jeffrey attempted to have me delete this review. After I shared screenshots of 1) my initial booking 2) the first confirmation 3) the second confirmation 4) him telling me that I should book through him via text and not his website 5) his mention of Rick was not a question to me but rather a statement and 6) he tried to lie and say that I had cancelled on him and there were no conversations about a cancellation… he finally said, “I can see your point.” I am appalled that it took screenshots of our conversation plus him arguing with me about them (which includes him saying “Mike drop” about an incorrect statement to which I reconfirmed the accurate screenshot and information) to finally “get my point.”

Me and my brothers went out with Jeff and we had a blast! The trip definitely exceeded my expectations and was worth every dollar we spent. We reached our bag limit on COD haddock and Pollock in a few hrs and he took us out for tuna. We also got to see whales and tuna chasing mackerel. Jeff was great he was professional and fun he also filleted all of the fish for us. Supplied tackle rods and brought us to catch bait. If you are trying to go out with somebody gets lots of fish and have fun I would strongly recommend him. We brought all the food and drinks we wanted.
