Inshore fishing trips in Va Beach typically stay very close to the beach & in sight of land. These trips are usually best for families with younger children or for groups that have limited experience fishing or on the ocean. Most fish inshore are going to be of the smaller size like Spanish Mackerel, Bluefish, Croaker,Spot, Spadefish & Ribbonfish.... although we do fairly often come across larger species such as Cobia, Red Drum, King Mackerel & Sharks, it doesn't happen all the time. If you are an avid fisherman or an adult group expecting large hard fighting fish, This may not be the trip for you. If you specify you only want to target the larger fish we can definitely change tactics & try to accomodate.
Mid Shore or "Nearshore" fishing trips in Va Beach travel out a bit farther "from 15 to 35 miles" & target species that typically do not come as close to shore. This is a good trip to choose if you have been on inshore trips before & just want more of an "offshore" experience to target different species & have a longer day on the water. There are good shipwrecks out farther that hold an abundance of different species such as Black Seabass, Tautog, Flounder, Triggerfish, Black Drum & More. Also in these same areas during certain times of the mid summer season we can troll for Mahi Mahi, King Mackerel, Skipjack Tuna & even the occasional Sailfish or White Marlin is landed.
Offshore / Deep Sea fishing trips in Va Beach is definitely where you want to be to catch your "fish of a lifetime" bucket list fish. These trips travel out 50 to 80 miles "depending where the bite is" to fish the deep canyon waters of the Gulf Stream. These are the areas where the large pelagic species forage for their dinners. Large fish such as Yellowfin & Bigeye Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, White & Blue Marlin roam these areas in search of an easy meal. We also fish the deep canyon bottoms of 300 to 2000 feet deep in search of Blueline & Golden Tilefish, Grouper, Rosefish, Barrelfish & Swordfish. If you think your ready....You should definitely check this one off your bucket list. You just may become addicted like us!
