Captain Stephen operates fishing trips out of Montauk aboard a 36' Osmond Beal Downeast vessel. Anglers can explore these waters, which are rich in Thresher Shark, Black Seabass, and Bluefin Tuna, under Stephen’s expert guidance. The best way to learn about fishing is to join him on the water. Montauk is waiting for you with a fish that has your name on it, and Professional Cryer Fishing Charters is ready to assist you in catching it. With years of professional experience, Captain Stephen serves as an invaluable guide for the day.

Depending on the season, a variety of fish can be caught, including Striped Bass, Black Seabass, Scup (Porgy), Mako Shark, Thresher Shark, Blue Shark, Bigeye Tuna, Bluefin Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, Tautog, Flounder, and more. Guests may engage in various fishing techniques during the trip, such as trolling, jigging, or bottom fishing, or even more specialized methods suited for the area.

Professional Cryer Fishing Charters is a family-friendly service, allowing the whole family to unplug and enjoy the day together. Children must wear life vests, so it’s important to check if the appropriate sizes are available on board. Guests are encouraged to bring snacks for an energy boost during the trip.

The 36’ Downeast Osmond Beal accommodates up to six passengers, providing a spacious cockpit that ensures comfort while fishing. Equipped with modern safety gear and electronics, the boat also has a first mate on board to assist with fishing needs, including cleaning and filleting the catch. A customary 20% tip for the mate is appreciated, and crushed ice is included with the charter.

Quality rods, reels, tackle, and lures are provided, with live bait available upon request. There's no need to worry about purchasing a fishing license, allowing guests to come aboard without hassle. However, it's important to be aware that certain species may have specific regulations or limited seasons, so asking the captain about what to expect is always a good idea.

For a successful outing, it’s advisable to bring non-spray sunblock, a hat, rubber boots, and sunglasses. Water is complimentary, and while alcohol is permitted in moderation, the captain prefers to avoid hard liquor and glass bottles. A toilet is also available on board for convenience.
