trips give you plenty of time and opportunity to fill the cooler. $340 plus applicable tax.

1 Day Cashes Special 10
Cashes Ledge is an underwater granite mountain range located 80 miles east of Gloucester. The Ledge is closed to commercial ground fishing year round, and Yankee Capts is the only recreational fishing vessel
that regularly visits this area. Known for both quality and variety of
the catch, Cashes Ledge Specials offer anglers the best chance at
bagging a grand slam of the NE ground fish species as well as an
excellent shot at catching trophy sized fish. While Cashes Ledge is thestated destination of these Gulf of Maine trips, Captain Greg also has
the option of steaming to other offshore banks, such as Fippenies Ledge, Sharrer Ridge, Sigsbee Ridge and even as far as Jeffries Bank, Matinicus Bank, Toothaker Ridge and Outer Falls (not to be confused with Jeffries Ledge) when the fishing conditions warrant it. $217 plus applicable taxes.Click Buy to view event dates and times. |

Limited Load All Day WEEKDAY!
Need a little more space? Anglers no longer have to put up with the shoulder-to-shoulder nonsense of some other over-packed all day party boats, as these trips are strictly limited. These trips have 33% fewer people than in previous years, leaving plenty of elbowroom for each and every angler. Unlike our offshore fishing trips, our all-day trip is offered as General Admission, meaning you do not pre-select rail positions now, they are "first come, first served" on the day or your trip. The Yankee Capts will be available to board up to 2 hours prior to the scheduled departure time for those who choose to arrive early to select certain rail positions the morning of a trip. If you would like to see a layout of the rail positions of the Yankee Capts a link can be found on our homepage under the information menu.7:00 AM - 5:00 PM. $65Click Buy to view event dates and times. |

Marathon 10
Marathon trips offer the best and most fishing that one can fit in a day.
It puts the areas seldom visited by dedicated day boats well within your
reach, and gives you plenty of added fishing time in the bargain.
Depending on the conditions and time of year, you can expect to fish
anywhere from the south end of Stellwagen to the eastern edge of
Jeffries Ledge. These trips target cod, pollock, haddock, and everyone's favorite - cusk. $75

Bait and Haddock Express 10
This trip targets the delicious haddock, arguably one of the finest food fish in the world. The B&H is an excellent freezer filling option for
customers with limited free time, and a great introduction to the world
of overnight fishing. Traditionally, haddock fishing is done with bait,
on anchor over gravel or soft bottom. However, if there is a good sign of other desirable ground fish, Captain Greg may very well change the plan of attack, so a "bycatch" of cod, pollock, cusk, and hake is always a distinct possibility. Trip leaves on Tuesday nights at 10 pm (with the exception of the last one, special trip leaving on a Sunday) and you can expect to fish for 8 to 9 hours on this trip. $147

2 Day Georges Bank 10
The famous Georges Bank lies 120 miles SE of Gloucester. On these trips we primarily target schools of market cod on open bottom. Either drifting, anchoring or motor fishing is the norm depending on the conditions, and the anglers are required to use jigs. As an alternative to open bottom, Captain Greg may fish wrecks and rock piles for larger cod and pollock. These extremely popular trips provide a great opportunity to fill the freezer and catch a trophy fish. On the 2 Day trip you can expect 15 hours of fishing on day one, and up to 10 hours on day 2. $340 plus applicable tax.

Either drifting, anchoring or motor fishing is the norm depending on the conditions. As an alternative to open bottom, Captain Greg may fish wrecks and rock piles for larger cod and pollock. You can expect 12 action packed hours of fishing. $217 plus applicable tax.

2 Day Hake Fishing 10
Not for the faint of heart. We run these trips Key West style,
fishing around the clock. Starting at day break we will drift and jig
for cod & pollock on the open bottom, then anchor up on a wreck for the night and bait/jig fish for hake, which bite best in the dark. The night
fishing will be followed by more cod jigging action in the morning. Make sure to get all the rest you can before coming on this trip. $360 plus applicable tax.

2 Day Georges/GOM Wrecks 10
As the name suggests, these trips are dedicated to fishing the various wrecks on Georges Bank. Captain Greg has numbers for numerous wrecks that lie in 60 to 300 feet of water. Tim Coleman, former editor of the New England Fisherman, has helped us find many of lesser known and virgin wrecks on Georges Bank, which hold both good number and size of Cod, Pollock, and delicious Hake. Anglers can use bait or jigs depending on the situation, but keep in mind that some of those wrecks can be sticky. $350 plus applicable tax.

3 Day Bargain Basement Tuna Event
We've taken our usual "one-of-a-kind" 3-day tuna extravaganza, slashed the price, and brought it to you a little earlier this year! Offering up to 48 hours of fishing time. Some of the options include running a trolling rotation during the daylight hours or fishing on top of the flats before running out to the edge to anchor for the night.
Our anglers will bait fish or jig for tuna as the conditions warrant. The primary targeted species is the bad and beautiful yellowfin tuna, but each year we land a number of exotics such as monster big eye tuna, wahoo, and swordfish, and later in the season albacore can make up the bulk of the catch. Medium blue fins are also a possibility, and schools of mahi-mahi can provide a welcome distraction from tuna fishing. The angler load is limited to 27 fares, and we reserve the right to overbook by 2 in order to compensate for any last minute cancellations and
no-shows. $460 plus applicable tax.
