More about our charters — trip types, seasons & planning
Book a Chesapeake Bay Charter in Maryland
Chesapeake Bay Sport Fishing runs private and shared trips from Queen Anne Marina in Stevensville, with select seasonal trips departing from Pasadena. Use the live calendar above to choose the date, boat, and trip type that fits your group; the exact departure marina appears with each available boat. Spring, summer, and fall fishing trips typically focus on the best legal seasonal bite, including rockfish when Maryland's season is open; August and other off-season windows can be a good fit for crabbing, bowfishing, bottom fishing, or a relaxed bay cruise. Private charters are built for your own family, company outing, bachelor party, or group event, while walk-on trips let individual anglers reserve seats on a shared departure. Most trips include the crew, rods, reels, bait, tackle, and the required Maryland fishing license, so your group mainly needs food, drinks, weather-appropriate clothing, and a plan to arrive 15-20 minutes early.
Plan details: rates & policies, FAQ, walk-on trips, and gift cards.
Private Fishing Charters
Reserve the boat for your own group and fish with a dedicated captain and mate. The calendar shows available boats, capacities, morning and afternoon windows, and the current total before you pay a deposit.
Starting point: current rates are shown by boat in the live booking calendar.
Walk-On Trips
Shared departures are a good fit when you only need a few seats instead of the whole boat. Browse posted dates, remaining seats, and per-seat pricing on the walk-on page.
Starting point: per-seat pricing is posted on each departure.
Crabbing Charters
Hands-on Chesapeake crabbing trips are seasonal and family friendly, with the crew helping your group work the gear and enjoy time on the Bay. They are especially useful during windows when fishing targets shift.
Starting point: seasonal private-trip pricing is shown in the booking calendar when available.
Bowfishing Charters
Bowfishing trips run when conditions line up for after-dark action on shallow-water targets. Departure time can depend on tide and visibility, so the captain confirms timing close to the trip.
Starting point: seasonal pricing is confirmed by available date and tide window.
Duck Hunting
Seasonal hunting trips pair local waterfowl knowledge with Chesapeake Bay logistics. Availability depends on season dates, weather, and crew scheduling, so call before planning a group.
Starting point: call (443) 347-4464 for seasonal availability and pricing.
