Trips/Rates
4.5 hour Striped Bass Charter: 525.00, 1-4 anglers, additional rider 75.00
Catch mackerel (our live bait) with Captain Ben and mate and then cruise to our first striper spot. This is our most popular charter which provides you with an experience you will remember from Maine’s coastal views to catching striped bass within a reasonable amount of time. We could fish coves/inlets, mouths of tidal rivers, the rocky shoreline and sandy beaches throughout the duration of our charter. The boat is dedicated to you and your party.
6 hour Striped Bass Charter: 650.00, 1-4 anglers, additional rider 75.00
Catch mackerel (our live bait) with Captain Ben and mate and then cruise to our first striper spot. We could fish coves/inlets, mouths of tidal rivers, the rocky shoreline and sandy beaches throughout the duration of our charter. This is great option for the more serious angler or boat lover as the extended trip allows us to venture further up the coast or tidal rivers and fish an entire tide. The boat is dedicated to you and your party.
2.5 hour Build your own adventure with the Captain: 325.00, 1-6 guests, additional hourly rate is 75.00 per hour
Come aboard the Summer Girl and build your own adventure with Captain Ben on this trip. Some ideas from trips we have done in the past have been a sunrise cruise, sunset cocktails, harbor cruise, lunch/dinner by water, swimming in the bays, visiting scenic lighthouses, cruise to see the puffins (weather dependent) trips to Bath and Damariscotta, watching marine life, Island hopping, and boat picnics. Let your imagination run wild! If you want pick-up at your vacation rental or nearby dock, we can do that locally (within the Boothbay area). The boat is dedicated to you and your party of guests.
2.5 hour “The Local" Fishing Charter: 325.00 1-6 guests, additional hourly rate is 75.00 per hour
Great fishing option for the family or those that want to bend a few rods with a quick fishing expedition. On the Summer Girl we will jig for mackerel, pollock, and cunner and maybe even a cod or two will come up as a bi catch. We can fish up to 6 guests at once and get ready for some action as the sabiki rigs can come up with 4-5 fish at once. We will likely visit 3-4 fishing spots during our trip with lighthouses as a backdrop and local lobstermen nearby hauling though their gear. No experience needed, if you are old enough to hold a rod and reel (hang on tight) this trip is for you. Getting on the water during your Maine vacation is a must. Having the boat all to the party you bring makes it easy, accommodating, and provides you with a fun, quick, adventure on the Maine coast.
