Book a Personal Fishing Experience with Captain Ron in Annapolis or Kent Island

Please note that we offer pick-up services in Annapolis or Kent Island upon request. Kindly inquire with us before making a booking if you require a special pick-up arrangement. We recommend reading our trip descriptions to ensure you select the trip that best suits your needs.

Captain Ron provides a personalized fishing experience that you won't find on large head boats. Anglers of all experience levels are welcome. Everything you need for your special day, except food and drinks, is included. Simply step onto the boat. Our lineup of custom rods, high-end reels, and tackle will meet all your fishing needs. Don't forget to bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and appropriate attire. Captain Ron also supplies ice in the built-in coolers on the boat. Unlike large head boats, we do not return to the dock after reaching your limit. You will continue to catch and release fish for the duration of your paid time on the water. Captain Ron even takes photos throughout the trip and immediately sends them to you to capture your special day.

Captain Ron takes pride in operating a clean and well-maintained boat. Our brand new 25' boat is designed to handle the Chesapeake Bay while also providing access to shallow waters and open water fishing decks. Equipped with state-of-the-art electronics and accessories, the boat caters to fly and light tackle anglers. Additionally, Captain Ron owns and operates JLS Rods LLC, the largest independent light tackle saltwater fishing rod company on the East Coast.

Captain Ron emphasizes the overall fishing experience and the importance of conservation. He actively works to restore and enhance the Chesapeake Bay, believing in giving back more than he takes. It is customary to tip 15-20% to show appreciation for the captain's hard work, including fish cleaning, boat maintenance, cleaning, and rigging services, if you had a good time.

With Captain Ron's expertise, all that remains is to choose a date and make your booking.
