Some Trips Are Not About the Fishing
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.

Inshore Fishing Adventure on the Beautiful New Hampshire Coast
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. With a wide range of techniques and boats to choose from, we can craft the perfect outing for anglers of all skill levels. 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!

EPIC BASSIN
This being the last week before the commercial bass season opens is by far your best chance of landing multiple fish over 35 inches.Every trip in the last four days has had multiple short fish , numerous Slot fish (28-31") released and at least three fish over 35" on each trip.It doesn't have to be with us but I highly recommend you quit Wishing and get fishing.

New Hampshire Fishing Report
Fishing enthusiasts in New Hampshire know that March can be a slow month for fishing. However, there is one bright spot: the Haddock season officially opens on March 1st. This means that anglers can start targeting this popular species, which can be found in abundance off the coast of New Hampshire during this time of year. While the Haddock season may be the main event in March, there are other fish to be caught as well. Winter Flounders are still abundant, particularly in sheltered areas. These tasty fish are known for their firm white flesh and delicate flavor, making them a favorite among seafood lovers. For those looking to try their hand at deep sea fishing in NH, Hampton is an excellent place to start. If you're planning a fishing trip to New Hampshire, check out my fishing trips and book with me!

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.
