We offer a variety of trips on
both vessels, our shortest inshore
trip is a 2
hour
family discovery trip and our longest a
quality 10
hour offshore trip.
Our four and six hours
inshore sport
fishing trips aboard the Gath IV are the most popular! We strive to suit the
trips to our guests fishing
desires and capabilities. Our
inshore trips are enjoyed by families
because you have an opportunity to catch big fish close to shore
within just
minutes of
the harbor. Most of the
action
is within 1 mile of our spectacular scenic shoreline. Inshore
we target stripers,
mackerel, and
bluefish
on light line as
they migrate
along the Maine coast.
Offshore we target cod, haddock, pollock, tuna and shark in much
deeper water.
An experienced USCG licensed captain who
is
also a registered
Maine
guide, and a 1st class professional mate
are provided on all our trips for
your safety and convenance.. Many of
our guests note that the one
thing that sets us apart is the caring, personal service provided by
our professional crew!
