Fins Up Sportfishing offers private fishing charters on the Long Island Sound out of Port Chester, New York, led by Captain Danny, a lifelong local angler with nearly five decades of experience on these waters. Every trip is fully private and customized, making it a great choice for beginners, families, and seasoned anglers who want a relaxed, professional day on the water with hands on guidance from a captain who truly knows the area.

Trips target some of the most popular species in the Long Island Sound, including Striped Bass, Bluefish, Fluke, Sea Bass, and Porgy. Captain Danny adjusts each outing based on seasonal patterns, tides, and conditions to put guests in the best possible position for steady action. With short runs to productive fishing grounds, you spend more time fishing and less time traveling.

The boat is a spacious 32 foot Osmod Beal powered by a reliable Yanmar engine, designed for comfort, safety, and smooth rides. It accommodates up to six guests comfortably for private charters, making it ideal for families, friends, and small groups. All fishing gear is provided, and Captain Danny takes pride in teaching proper techniques, knot tying, bait presentation, and fish handling at a pace that works for everyone onboard.

Fins Up Sportfishing specializes in private half day, three quarter day, and full day fishing trips, with morning and afternoon options available. Spring through fall is peak season, driven by excellent Striped Bass and Fluke fishing, while shoulder seasons offer fewer crowds and strong fishing opportunities for those looking for a quieter experience.

Departing from Port Chester, NY, this charter is conveniently located for anglers from Westchester County, Greenwich, Stamford, Rye, and surrounding Connecticut and New York communities. The Long Island Sound provides a unique mix of inshore and nearshore fishing, beautiful coastal scenery, and consistent opportunities to catch quality fish close to home.

In addition to fishing trips, custom experiences and sunset cruises are available by request, perfect for couples, families, or small groups looking to enjoy the water in a more relaxed setting. Guests are welcome to bring food and drinks, while the captain handles navigation, equipment, and safety. Fins Up Sportfishing focuses on patience, clear instruction, and genuine hospitality, with a special passion for helping kids and first time anglers land their first fish and leave the dock smiling. Every trip is tailored. Now.
