The charter was fantastic! The captain and his crew went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time and caught plenty of fish. The cleaning service was top-notch. Highly recommend.

We had a fantastic night of summer fishing with Captain Rick. He was great to spend time with, knew the local area very well, knew exactly where the fish were and what the fish were feeding on, and told great fishing stories. The weather was perfect and we caught many fluke and multiple over slot striped bass. This is your guy for seeing the best of angling in the area and we will definitely book an outing with Captain Rick again.

Let me tell you, Captain Tim of the Margarita is one extraordinary captain. He knows exactly where the fish are and when they'll be biting. I had the pleasure of fishing with him during the Oakdale tournament on Long Island this fall, where we ended up winning. A week later, we snagged the prize for the biggest striped bass at the Paul tournament. I've also chartered with him a few times for Tuna, and it's always been a blast. We even had some giants on the line the first day, though we had to let them go as they were too big. However, we did land a nice 78-pound bluefin. Fishing with him is always a pleasure, and I can't wait to get back on the boat with him soon.
