Other Information
On most trips a first mate will be aboard. Mates work for tips which normally run between 10-15% of the total trip price. Tipping the mate is not optional - it's required. Please add this to the above figures for the total trip price. 
 

  • Prices are for parties of up to six passengers.

  • All bait and tackle is included.

  • A $200.00 deposit is required with reservation

  • Firearms and illegal drugs are not permitted aboard

  • Cancellations must be made at least 2 weeks prior to departure to qualify for a full refund.

  • While unlikely,our trip prices are subject to change if the price of diesel fuel rises and stays high throughout the summer. If this happens we may have to add a slight surcharge to the trip to cover the extra cost. We can guarantee, however, that no surcharge will be more than $50 on any given trip.

  • State, Federal, and some special "boat" limits apply to the size and amount of fish we may keep. Please feel free to ask us about these limits.

  • On any given trip we will not keep any more than a total of 8 tuna.

  • Many shark species are strictly catch-and-release.

Booking Tips

•We offer fishing trips from April through the end of December. But not all fish are available at all times. Anglers wishing to target a particular species will need to schedule their trip when that fish is available. Anglers limited to fishing only during a specific time period will have to go for what's available during that time. Please click on our FISHING CALANDAR to see what typically bites when.

•It is sometimes possible to secure an open date just a day or two in advance. But most of our trips are booked many months ahead of time. January and February are when the bulk of the summer season is claimed.

•Weekends book-up first, then weekdays. Weekends are also the busiest time on the water so that anglers able to fish during the week sometimes have an advantage in that there will be less competition on the fishing grounds for the best spots.

•You may email me (modernsharking@Gmail.com) if you wish to arrange a for charter date but I usually suggest that folks call me so that we can discuss available dates and options together.

•During June we're usually fishing too far our for cell reception and calls should be made to 410-213-2442 in the evening between 7:pm and 9:pm. The rest of the year I can usually be reached on my cell phone during the day at 410-726-7946.

•By the time the summer season arrives, most of our dates will be booked. It's never too early to call and make a reservation.
