There's a fish with your name on it in Baltimore, and Ditch Hag Sportfishing Charters will help you catch it! Captain Gus, with his extensive experience navigating these Baltimore fishing charters, he is your go-to expert for fishing charters in Baltimore MD.
These waters are teeming with Striped Bass, Catfish, Crab, White Perch, and more. With a bit of luck, you'll soon be shouting, "Fish on!" during your Baltimore Maryland fishing adventure.
For these species, you'll likely use light tackle for trolling fishing and inshore fishing. Considering a family trip? Kids are more than welcome on our Baltimore fishing charters! Remember, children must wear life vests, so check with Captain Gus about the availability of the appropriate sizes. Also, don’t forget to pack some snacks to keep everyone’s energy up during your Chesapeake Bay cruise.
You'll be fishing aboard a spacious 41’ Downeast boat, accommodating up to 6 passengers for a memorable Chesapeake Bay cruise. The vessel is fully equipped for a productive day of Baltimore Maryland fishing, including a convenient onboard toilet.
All necessary fishing gear, including rods, reels, tackle, and lures, are provided for your fishing charters in Baltimore MD. Live bait is available, but be sure to ask if you’ll be catching it yourself during your inshore fishing trip. A First Mate will be on hand to ensure everything runs smoothly, and it's customary to tip them 10–20% for their hard work on your Baltimore fishing charters.
The charter covers your fishing license, so all you need to do is look forward to the trip! Keep in mind that you may need to release some fish due to regulations, so if you're unsure, just ask Captain Gus during your Chesapeake Bay cruise.
Don't forget to bring sunglasses, non-spray sunscreen, bottled water, and a hat for your Baltimore Maryland fishing trip. If you'd like to bring other drinks, feel free to ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but it's best to avoid hard liquor and glass bottles during your fishing charters in Baltimore MD.
