  We had an absolutely fantastic time on Captain John’s boat this week. We were looking for a quick two hour tour hitting the highlights of Casco Bay and Portland Harbor... read more and Capt. John delivered: nice little tour of the harbor with some WWII history about the different forts, views of two lighthouses, mackerel fishing, and lobstering. Capt. John kept our three teenage sons engaged as he allowed them to hook and he pulled and measured the eight (!?!) lobsters from the traps. We were also fortunate enough to stumble on a group of porpoises and then swung over to seal rock for some additional entertainment. We couldn’t have asked for a better day, trip and guide to experience Portland’s Harbor.

  We had an awesome time exploring Casco Bay with Capt. John! We set out for a "Family Adventure" and that is exactly what we got! Our boys (12... read more & 8) enjoyed fishing, pulling up lobster traps, and even steering the boat. The captain was great with the children and created a fun afternoon. We would highly recommend this charter!
The captain provided all needed gear and equipment for the trip, including life vests and fishing rods.

  We turned our two hour cruise into three since we were having a good time. The weather was perfect and Captain John was willing to modify the tour to our... read more interests.Great local history lesson as we exited the marina.

Took a nice trip out to the lighthouse and the dropped poles into the water to catch Mackerel! After we had some bait in the boat we headed over to House island to try and catch Striper, we got a couple bumps but nothing on the line, but had a good time trying with a nice cool breeze.

We stowed the fishing gear and suited up to handle the lobster traps, checked a couple and came away with a keeper lobster. Great teaching moment on how Maine manages the lobster population.

We headed back in to the dock to band the lobster claws and then called it a good day with Capt. John
