Joe was amazing! He was so great with our kids even the one who got bored halfway through! He tried to keep her interested, and didn’t get annoyed at all with her like some people probably would have. He did great with my 9 year old that would rather fish than do anything elts! He has got her thinking that she wants to be a captain when she grows up! Thank you so much Joe for doing great with our family! We will defiantly be coming back the next time we are in Maine!

We had a really great time with Capt. Joe . He was very nice and personable. We first trolled and caught some Mackerel for bait , then he took us to two different spots for Striper . They were definitely biting. My husband and I both caught a Striper and one was big enough to keep ! I was having a harder time getting one hooked so Joe did it for me and let me reel it in ! What a guy . It was getting close to the end of our time and you could tell he really wanted us both to catch even thought I had told him I realized you don’t always CATCH fish when fishing , especially in 2 hours.
  Capt. Joe then cleaned and packed our fish even though his next tour was coming right up and I told him I could clean it myself. We are already planning our next trip and thinking of gift cards for our adult kids for Christmas!  Sheila Richardson

My wife and I had a fantastic experience fishing with North East Salt Water Maine. We are both from Tampa and have been on many charters. Saying that Captain Joseph did an excellent job taking us out on the water and showing us the ropes. Unfortunately it was a tough day on the water as not many fish were biting. However, with Captain Joseph’s determination we were able to catch a Striped Bass! If you are going to book a charter anywhere I would strongly recommend North East Salt Water Maine.

We had such a great morning starting off at 6:30 AM with Captain Joe. Joe we love you! Though exhausted and slightly hungover (some, not all), the ocean, cozy boat, and Joe’s easy going and engaging nature made it a pretty much magical experience. I hope everybody understands how epic this was. I’m not being paid to write this, Joe is just that chill and Knowledgeable. We really recommend prioritizing a perfectly curated excursion.

We had an amazing trip!!! Holy mackerel( sorry I had to)…..highly recommend this trip. The Captian was very knowledgeable, showed us what we needed to do each step of the way. We were completely comfortable with him. We had our 5 year old son on the boat, we were a little worried about how that was gonna go, he loved it!! Jow was great with him! If you’re thinking about going, just pull the trigger, you won’t regret it.
