Captain Peter specializes in fishing the Northeast Canyons, from 75 To 100 Miles out!! The Northeast Canyons off the coast of Montauk, NY, are one of America's most unique and productive fisheries. Thousands of years ago, when sea levels where far lower than they are today, rivers cut deep channels into the continental shelf, forming steep-walled canyons.

These trips are completely customizable as well. Whether you want to fish Hudson Canyon, The Dip, The 100-Square, or even Block Canyon. Captain Peter is a master of them all. Captain Peter will game plan with you before departing to go over which locations have the hotest bites for specific species so you can make an informed decision on where'd you'd like to fish! You'll get out there aboard Captain Peter's 40' Topaz sportfisher—an ideal boat for these waters. She's a fishing machine, and has a comfortable cabin to ensure that your trip is as relaxing as it is fun.
