BOOK A CAPE COD FISHING TRIP TODAY
A $200 deposit is required prior to your trip. Because of the bait requirements for tuna fishing, this deposit will be refunded only if your trip is cancelled within 7 days of departure, or if weather is prohibitive.
Soft drinks, tackle, and bait provided. All required safety equipment and licenses are available for your inspection.
Tuna fishing can be a slow experience, and you are never guaranteed a fish. Be prepared for long boat runs, some exceeding 2 hours. The search for tuna is exciting. You’ll spot numerous whales and other sea life as you scan the waters for schools of feeding tuna.
If you do hook up with a giant tuna, the fish are fought from fixed rod holders mounted on the
transom, and you will be the one reeling it in. There is no fighting chair unless requested in advance. Stand up rods are available if the bluefin are in a school or small to medium class.
Any giant bluefin tuna fish (73" or larger) caught are property of the Maverick. School and medium bluefin can be kept by the charter based on the federal regulations in place on the day of the charter. We carry a federal Atlantic tuna permit to sell any giant tuna we catch. If a fish over 73” is boated, 1/3 of the charter fee will be refunded. No proceeds from the sale of fish will be shared with the customer.
Although we won’t be targeting them, occasionally mako and blue sharks will be caught while tuna fishing with bait. You are welcome to fight them to the boat, but please don’t expect to keep them. We believe sharks have been over fished and should be photographed
and released.
This trip is not recommended for the impatient fishermen, or anyone who is prone to sea sickness. Some excursions exceed 50 miles from shore, depending on fish location, so plan on a very full day, often leaving before dawn and returning after dark. Of course, the trip hours can be customized to
your wishes.
If you are vulnerable to sea sickness, please take precautions to prevent an uncomfortable trip! You can find additional information on preventing sea sickness at:
