Dog-Friendly Chesapeake Bay Fishing Charters

Booking May Dates Now!

/in /by

The proposed 2023 MD Striped Bass Season Dates are: Trophy Season-May 1st–May 15th
Regular Season-May 16th–December 10th (with a closure in July).

Trophy Season is your best shot at that monster, fish of a lifetime, but it’s not for everyone. These fish are migratory and not schooled up. There are days when you don’t capture one. For more consistent action, May 16th onward for the resident, schooled stripers (rockfish) is a better bet.

We can take a max of 6. We’ll be fishing out of Atlantic Marina on Magothy at 487 New York Avenue, Pasadena, MD 21122.

Book your Chesapeake Bay fishing trip today! And don’t forget to bring your dog!

Weekday fishing is consistently good with limits of Striped Bass every trip, and some Perch and Bluefish mixed in as a bonus. Weekends are littered with clueless,inconsiderate boat-owners making success infinitely more difficult. Now, is the time to get your Chesapeake Bay fishing trip on the books! We are still fishing out of our Magothy River location, but we will move back south to Deale, MD within a month.
Families and dogs are always welcome on the Last Hurrah!

Rockfish Season has Commenced!

The trophy season was a grind but the regular rockfish is off and running now.  The limit has doubled to two per angler and the size must be 19″+.  The action has been good thus far with limits each trip.

WEEKDAYS ARE FAR BETTER FISHING

Here is what we have open in June:
Morning Trips:  1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 14, 15, 16, 17, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30

Season Starts May 1st—Dates Going Fast!

/in /by

The Maryland Striper Season kicks off: May 1st with the first 15 days being “Trophy” Season.  This is when the jumbo, migrating fish are in the Bay for their annual spawning ritual.  May 16 through December 10th is the regular, resident striper season when the fish are smaller but the action is typically faster.  We’ll be running out of Tracy’s Landing (Deale) MD for all of May and then moving the boat north for the summer to stay on the bite.  Our new, summertime marina is:  Atlantic Marina on the Magothy in Pasadena.  This facility is a major improvement over past summers, and while closer to the fishing grounds, it is only a few minutes north of Annapolis by car.

We run two trips a day, 7-days a week and we can take a maximum of 6 customers.  Mornings depart- 5:30; afternoons- 12:00.  One group hires the boat for private charter.  We are family & dog-friendly so bring your pups!
We are looking forward to another great season.  Dates are going fast—Book your Chesapeake Fishing Charter aboard The Last Hurrah today!!

October:  28

November:  2, 3, 8, 9, 10, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27.

Fall Pattern is ON!

/in /by

A little cold front has unleashed the fish and it’s been game-on out there the last few days.  From now until December 10th is the best time of the year to go fishing.  Ironically, the calendar is way too open!  Fish are schooling up and biting like crazy.  This is the time of year when hooking 10 to 20 fish simultaneously is fairly commonplace.  We can take a max of 6 customers, but less is fine.  One group hires boat for private charter.  Let’s go catching!  (Boat is enclosed, heated and comfortable).

Here are open dates:
November: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27.
December:  3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
