About Your Trip

Head out with Captain Frank for a fishing fiesta! On this trip you will be skirting around inshore and nearshore waters in search of a variety of tasty treats. Black Seabass, Spanish Mackerel, Tautog, and Bluefish are just some of the classic northeast Atlantic species you might pull up, and there's plenty more. The reefs, wrecks, and other submarine structures are teeming with life, and Captain Frank knows where to find them.

Up to 6 guests can fit aboard Captain Frank's brand new state-of-the-art 22' Cape Horn center console, so bring your family and friends on this voyage. The vessel is powered by a 300hp Yamaha engine which will guide you smoothly across the inshore bays. You can bump your favorite tunes on the Bluetooth stereo system for maximum enjoyment of your day on the water. You will be using the live bait well to drop lines with baitfish. You can troll, bottom fish, or sight cast using light or heavy tackle. It all depends on what you want to catch.

Captain Frank will provide all the rods, reels, live bait, and tackle necessary for a successful trip. You just need to bring snacks and drinks, as well as appropriate clothing. Also, bring a cooler to keep your catch fresh on the drive home. Sunscreen and a hat are always key to staying protected from the sun, but other than that you don't need much to have a blast!

About Your Guide

Captain Frank

Independent Guide 24 yrs of exp.

Captain Frank writes: "I grew up fishing the beach, back bays, sod banks, and jetties. Tagging along with my dad to catch the smaller fish he would use as bait for the bruisers cruising past was how I cut my teeth. From there I began fishing with friends on their boats, from docks and bridges, or off the sod banks. These early adventures stayed with me. They shaped who I became and how I fished. On the rare occasion I skipped school, it was to fish. And honestly, more than one sick day has been spent with a fishing rod in hand.

Today I run my guided fishing excursions with those adventures from the past in mind. I try to share my passion for fishing with everyone who comes out with me. I share my experience, my knowledge, and joy of the pursuit of fish. As a teacher, I know I have the ability to express the intricacies of fishing to anyone, regardless of age or experience.

Regardless of whether you are a novice who might be curious about a certain way to fish, or a seasoned angler looking for a trip out, I can accommodate you. We go where the fish are!"

Rapid Fire Guide Q & A

What’s the biggest fish you’ve caught?

On an offshore trip with a friend, we managed to hook into a massive blue marlin. The captain estimated it being over 1000 pounds. We fought the beast for 7.5 hours, then it suddenly died. It sank in 2000 feet of water. We tried everything to get the fish up, but the line finally parted. It was a tough loss, and an even tougher way to end the battle. It would've been great to have been able to release the big blue alive.

If you were cooking for all your friends what would you cook?

Probably lasagna. I make a killer lasagna. I cook it every year for the family at Christmas. I have a few other specialties, but the lasagna is always a favorite.

Whats your favorite band?

Killing Joke. I was really into punk rock in the early 80's, and just never lost my love for the music. Maybe not the attitude either... there really are so many bands that I love, but I'd have to say KJ is my fav.

Whats your favorite movie?

Wow, this is a tough one. I've watched Jaws, Blazing Saddles, Apocalypse Now, Young Frankenstein, The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly (and the rest of the trilogy movies), and a few others so many times. I love them all!

Whats your favorite sports team?

Vikings for football. Devils for hockey. Don't much care for baseball or basketball. Love to play them though.

Whats your drink of choice?

Iced tea that I brew.

What was your last halloween costume?

I'm ugly enough, who needs a mask?!

What do you want for Christmas this year?

I got it. A new French bulldog puppy.

How did you get started guiding?

Fishing has always been in my blood. I was always taking friends and family members out and showing them the ropes. So it was a pretty simple transition to guiding. And as a teacher, I truly enjoy showing others how to fish in a variety of ways.

What makes you different from other guides?

Not really sure. I work my butt off to put you on fish. I try every trick in my arsenal to get the most bites for you possible. I keep my boat immaculate, along with my gear. I'm pretty sure most guides do these things though. My goal each trip is to provide you with the best experience possible. Nobody should ever leave my boat, or walk off the beach, in a bad mood for any reason. Also, if the fishing sucks, or has been off lately, I'm going to let you know. I always base my trips on your desires. It's your adventure, I'm here to make it happen and meet your expectations, regardless of whether you are a beginner, or highly experienced angler.

Frank clearly knows these waterways and is a true master of Stone Harbor / Cape May. He took us to 7 spots in 4 hours to find the fish and even stayed out with us longer than the original length of the trip. It also seems like he really cares ...Read More
