Nervous Water Charters runs privately guided fishing trips in Boston Harbor and the surrounding waters for striped bass and bluefish with fly fishing and light tackle gear. Charters are available in half, three-forth, and full day trips. The charters usually accomodate up to three guests, but trips for larger groups on multiple boats can be arranged. Times for these charters are flexible, depending on the tides and your schedule. Most morning charters leave between 5:30-6:00 am. Evening charters leave around 3:00 pm.

Quick Trip: Don't have 4.5 hours to dedicate to a fishing trip? The quick trip is designed to allow you to get out on the water without having to take half the day off work or miss dinner. On a morning quick trip, you can be out on the water at 5:00 am and be back on the dock by 7:00 or take a client out fishing for a couple of hours after work. Although a half day charter is ideal for being able to fully take advantage of the harbor fishery, you don't always have the time. Quick trips run on an hourly rate with a minimum of 2 hours. Email or call Captain Webb to learn more.
