Summer Cobia and Bull Redfish
Conditions are very sensitive, but when the stars come together Maryland/Virginia is home to some of the best COBIA, REDFISH fishing on the planet!
We live for this time of the year! Here’s a summary of a typical day: get on the boat at first light, run down the bay at blistering speed until we are in the area, you'll get on the front casting deck waiting for us to call out a fish, you cast, work the lure, then BAM! Fish on with Rock On!
That’s what we call sight fishing for giant Cobia, and Redfish!

Fly Fishing Charters
Experience what the Chesapeake Bay has to offer the fly fisherman!!
Stripers (AKA Rockfish), American and Hickory Shad, Speckle Trout, Blue Fish, Spanish Mackerel, Redfish and more. To keep you on the best fishing possible, we move where the fish move – therefore, the location, time of launch, and time of return may change some due to fish migration.
To get us there we have two fantastic fishing platforms, Pathfinder 2700 open equipped with Garmin and Hummingbird electronics, a 425HP Yamaha outboard and Rhodan trolling motor. Hewes 21 Redfisher equipped with Garmin electronics (Hummingbird side scan coming this spring), a 300HP Yamaha and a Motor Guide trolling motor.
Both boats are great fishing machines and will get in SKINNY water where the fish are.
NOTE: This trip includes, and we recommend two to four people.
