What to Expect: You will be heading offshore in search of some of the top predators in the Gulf of Maine. The cruise out will be approximately 90 minutes.The most common shark we catch is the blue shark. Ther is also potential for appearances of porbeagles, thresher and makos. We will start by heading to the deep waters and setting up a chum slick. While we await the arrival of the sharks you can have the option to ground fish for some haddock, pollock and cod. Once the sharks find our bait and hookup you will be in a stand-up fishing battle of a lifetime! We do practice catch and release on all species of sharks. This trip is ideal for those who have fished before and are in search of fighting some of the big game fish in the Northeast. This is an 8hr trip with a maximum of four people.
What to Bring: We always recommend layering clothing as the weather can change quickly in New England. A blanket can also be helpful for those that get cold easily. Feel free to bring snacks or some takeout as well as your preferred beverages. Check out our blog for boat snack ideas. Please avoid bringing glass on the boat. We will have a gallon of chilled water available for your convenience. We would love to provide restaurant recommendations for takeout if you have any questions. There are multiple great restaurants close to the marina or near the Portland Public Water Taxi Dock.
Pick up can be at the Portland Public Water Taxi Dock at 72 Commercial Street. We can also meet at South Port Marine at 14 Ocean St South Portland. There is free street parking in the vicinity but this can be crowded in the peak of the season.
