York River Charters

"If you are looking for a captain who does everything to put you on fish, is very knowledgeable on the local water, has plentiful and reliable equipment, and is friendly, personable & accommodating, you have to go with Captain Alan! We had the BEST day on the water today! He hit several spots and we caught fish we had been wanting to catch, but never had (tautog, sheepshead, puffer, and more!). His mate, Bradley, was efficient, knowledgeable, friendly, and capable. We can’t wait to plan our next trip for the next season of fish!"

"I went out with Captain Alan in October of 2014. First off, I have to complement Alan on his expertise. Captain Alan is an excellent boat coxswain, he maneuvered the boat in the right place every time, setting me up with catch after catch. Secondly, Captain Alan knows the York River like the back of his hand. Every spot we fished at, we pulled multiple fish out. Additionally, Captain Alan made this one of the most memorable fishing trips I have ever been on. Conversation was great, and the fishing was even better. In just a four hour trip, we caught 47 Stripers! That is almost unheard of right? Captain Alan set me up with light tackle so the fight would be both challenging and enjoyable. Further, Captain Alan made me feel welcome with his generosity and support for our great nations Armed Forces! Folks, you should really consider a charter with Captain Alan, I promise, you will not be disappointed! Hooyah Deep Sea!"

"I have been on 2 trips with Captain Alan and both were amazing. On the first trip, Alan took my entire family (wife and 3 young kids) out on the York River. We were "fish on" quickly and the entire family had a great time. On another trip Alan took my Dad and I out for striped bass in December. We only caught one fish this trip, but it was a 40lb monster so it was well worth it! On both trips I felt very safe with Alan at the helm as our guide. If you are in the area and want to go fishing, I highly recommend York River Charters."

"Two years in a row on a trip with Captain Alan. Highly recommended for novices and pros alike, as a refreshing break from the usual WIlliamsburg Historic trips. We caught lots of fish, lots of sun and lots of fun. Captain Alan is one of the best charter trips I have taken, as he is very entertaining and informative on the fishing and the area. We will be going back many times."

"Captain Alan was a blast, We took my mother for her birthday and she had a grand time. I am not really the fisherman type but thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. Great weather, beautiful views, lots of fish and very entertaining host. Recommend this strongly if you want to spend an afternoon with some family or close friends."
