Eric and his family had a great time catching this red drum and a keeper cobia today. We’ll see you again come rockfish season.
We had an awesome day out on the water today chasing Cobia. The weather was just right and the water conditions were perfect for fishing. We were able to locate a school of Cobia pretty quickly and our clients had a blast reeling them in. We caught a good number of Cobia ranging from 25-40 pounds. It was great to see the excitement on everyone's faces as they landed their catches. Overall, it was a fantastic day of fishing and we're already looking forward to our next trip out on the Bay!
We got a huge Striped Bass this week. This could win any tournament! The weather is getting cold in Cape Charles, but surely not the bites. I'm expecting Striped Bass, Redfish, Mackerel, and more this week. Chesapeake Bay fishing has always been good!

We had an unusual request to go tubing instead of fishing and they were very gracious and accommodating! Our two teens had the best time for a couple hours tubing on Chesapeake Bay! What fun! We really enjoyed our time!

On our morning fishing trip, we had a great time! Our boys had a great time catching mackerel and blue fish and relaxing on the boat with their grandparents. Greg and Mike were both wonderful with our boys. Thank you for an unforgettable experience

My guys all raved about how fantastic the trip was! The weather was foul and the seas were rough, but Captain Greg and his first mate came through! The guys said the trip would have been enjoyable even if they hadn't caught Cobia because of how great the crew was! I can't thank you and your first mate enough!

It could not have been a better day or crew. We had a great time. We've already made plans to go striper fishing with the crew in December, and we can't wait.

Captain Allman and Mate Joseph were outstanding. The boat was very comfortable, with air conditioning, which was very useful in the 90+ degree heat. They went sight fishing for Cobia. We trolled for Spanish Mackerel and jigged over a wreck to catch them. In a half-day trip, we caught two Cobia that were over 40 inches long and nine mackerel. They were extremely helpful and dedicated to the charter's success. Captain Allman's experience with his boat made landing the Cobia a breeze. Joseph was amazing and one of the most likable people you'll ever meet. We had a fantastic time and would charter with Captain Allman again.
