Bay, Inlet & Inshore Fishing

For those of you who don’t have the stomach for the deep water ocean fishing and prefer Inshore and bay fishing, this is the perfect way to clear the head, get away for the day, enjoy friends or family, de-stress and take in some fresh crisp sea air.

The targeted species for this type of fishing is all determined by the seasons set forth by the DEC and the migratory routes the fish take during the year. The types of fish we target throughout the summer months are Black Fish, Porgy, Fluke, Sea Bass, Sea Robin, Striped Bass, Mackerel, Bluefish, Weakfish, Blowfish and snappers.  

We are licensed to carry 1-6 passengers.  You can choose your date by the targeted species, vacation, weekend, holiday or your date of choice.

This is a very relaxing form of fishing with much excitement for the whole family.

For this type of fishing were either drifting for fluke in and around the inlet or at times in the ocean (Seas providing) or Anchored up or drifting in or around bridges, structures or local man-made reefs located just a few miles outside of Moriches inlet.

We can accommodate up to 6 passengers with all the rods, bait, fuel, water and ice needed for a relaxing worry-free day on the water. Your only responsibility is beverage of choice, food, snack, sun block and sunglasses.

Because your success brings us success, we recommend fishing tides whenever possible for the greatest chance of success, so please check with us first before booking your dates.

We also charter out for all the local inshore fishing tournaments so feel free to call on that as well and book early.
