Explore Secret Fishing Spots in Chesapeake Bay with Nauti Hooker Charters!

Experience the hidden fishing gems of the Chesapeake Bay with Nauti Hooker Charters! Captain Richard Phippin, a lifelong local angler, operates this family-run charter. Offering year-round excursions, Captain Phippin will always track the fish to maximize your chances of a successful day on the water.

Embark on your adventure aboard the 25’ Maycraft pilothouse, powered by a mighty 300 HP Suzuki engine, accommodating up to 4 guests. The boat features a cozy enclosed hardtop cabin, providing seating and weather protection. It also includes canvas enclosures for chilly and windy days, as well as a private porta-potty onboard.

Each season presents unique fishing opportunities! Spring and fall are ideal for trolling Striped Bass (Rockfish), while summer is perfect for Bluefish and Spanish Mackerel. These fast species love to pursue bait, making light tackle and jigging with lures a thrilling option when encountering large schools of fish. Additionally, you can target Flounder, Trout, and Silver Perch.

To maximize your fishing time, Capt. Richie conveniently trailers the boat to be close to the fishing grounds. The crew provides all necessary fishing equipment, including rods, reels, tackle, and fishing licenses. Feel free to bring your own snacks and drinks, and be sure to pack warm jackets and rainwear. While Capt. Richie prefers catch and release, he is happy to clean your catch if you decide to keep it.
