Unforgettable tuna and marlin fishing charters in Ocean City, MD

If you’re looking for the ultimate big game fishing adventure, you’ve come to the right place.

Our tuna and marlin fishing charters in Ocean City, Maryland, offer both offshore and inshore trips designed for anglers of all experience levels. Whether you’re after the adrenaline rush of hooking a giant tuna or the thrill of battling a marlin, we’ve got you covered.

Chase big game with our half or full day tuna & marlin fishing trips

Our 12-hour offshore trips take you deep into the canyons, where clean, blue waters are teeming with big game fish like tuna, marlin, and wahoo. But it’s not just about the catch—you’ll also encounter an array of marine life, including whales, two-tone dolphins, sunfish, and sea turtles. We leave early from Talbot Street Pier to ensure you get a full day of fishing in these rich waters.

Prefer a shorter trip? Our 3-4 hour inshore trolling charters offer exciting opportunities closer to shore, where you can catch mahi, albacore, bluefish, bonita, king mackerel, and tuna. These trips are perfect if you’re looking for a half-day adventure with plenty of action.

And while you’re fishing in the green waters closer to shore, keep your eyes peeled—you’ll likely spot bottlenose dolphins, whales, and sea turtles along the way.

What to expect during tuna and marlin fishing

Our tuna and marlin fishing charters begin with a crucial early morning departure from Talbot Street Pier, heading through the Ocean City inlet just before or at sunrise.

Using the latest information from the previous day’s catch, satellite imagery, and Captain Jeff’s trusted network of fellow anglers, we navigate directly to the best fishing grounds to maximize your chances of a big catch.

Aboard the fully custom, 50ft OC Girl fishing boat, we’ll set up a large trolling spread customized to target your desired species. Once we locate the fish, the action heats up fast. Our experienced crew will hook the fish and get you strapped into a fighting harness or seated comfortably in the fighting chair.

For larger fish like marlin, we may need to clear lines and even chase down the fish, leading to heart-pounding moments as we back down on a leaping marlin. When luck brings us into a school of dolphin, prepare for a non-stop fight that will leave your arms with the best workout ever by the time the action subsides.

We follow all local regulations, landing the maximum allowable fish for you to take home. Billfish, such as marlin, are typically released unless we’re participating in a kill tournament. However, if we’re fortunate enough to catch a swordfish, you can count on bringing that tasty prize home for dinner.
