This was an unforgettable experience for my family and me. Captain Vince and Crew Mate Mark were fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and made us feel like we were fishing with old friends. We’re already looking forward to doing it again!

It’s tough to fit all the praise into one review, but this crew was absolutely fantastic! Our group included a seasoned angler, two kids with some experience, and one on their very first fishing trip. The captain and crew were incredibly patient and made sure the kids had an amazing time. We caught a ton of fish and created unforgettable memories. We’re already looking forward to our next trip with them—easily a 10-star experience!

Had an awesome time on the Liza Rey with Captain Jeff. It was our first time on a charter in OC Maryland, and my wife, son, and I couldn’t have asked for a better day! Jeff is an amazing guide/ captain, knowledgeable, proficient, and down to earth. We loved that it was exclusive, and not elbow, to elbow. The Liza Rey had plenty of room for the four of us, absolutely comfortable. Will be booking a fall 2024 trip for some stripers, and hopefully, another early summer trip in 2025. If you want good company and professionalism, Sick Day Fishing is the way to go! Thanks for a great time, Captain Jeff.

Captain Dave was fantastic. He thoroughly explained everything before we headed out. We drifted and caught a variety of fish, including flounder, croaker, sea bass, and my daughter even caught a sea robin (flying fish). Everyone had success. Captain Dave knew exactly where to position us, managing the tide and wind perfectly. Even my wife, who typically struggles to catch anything, managed to land two fish. When my daughter’s line got tangled in the motor, Captain Dave and his crew handled it calmly, even as the tide was pulling us toward the docks. I would have been stressed, but they remained unflustered. After the trip, we asked for a dinner recommendation, and Captain Dave suggested an excellent restaurant. If we return to Ocean City, we'll definitely book another trip with Captain Dave.
