Coastal Guide Service LLC 

Operating out of Ocean City, Coastal Guide Service’s goal is to make your trip memorable, enjoyable, and keep you safe in the process. The owner has been fishing these bountiful waters since 2009, and he can’t wait to share all his knowledge!

You will be fishing from a 28’ Dusky center console with full curtains, up to date Garmin electronics, Sat Phone, a Standard Horizon VHF radio, and all the equipment you need to catch the target species. The boat also features outriggers, downriggers, a livewell, and a cooler for your food/drinks.

Bring the whole family – the captain loves teaching kids all the fun things about fishing. Just contact him in advance if you’re bringing kids so you can agree on what you’ll be doing and so he can prepare appropriate life jackets for them. This is a very hands-on operation, and the crew lets you do as much as you would like to. If you want to gaff a fish, go for it! They can do customized trips to fit all your fishing needs.

Species you can expect to catch depending on the time of year include Triggerfish, Mahi Mahi, Spanish Mackerel, Cobia, Sea Bass, Tautog, Bluefish, and even Sharks.

The captain will provide Penn reels, along with some custom and Star rods, live bait, and lures. Live bait is sometimes caught, sometimes bought, depending on the time of year and targeted species. You can keep the catch with fish cleaning available.
Bring sunscreen, cameras, beverages (no glass), and food. It’s also a good idea to bring layered clothing.

Coastal Guide Service is looking forward to providing you with a fun-filled day on the water!
