Our 31′ Express Sportfisher, Current Addiction, that accommodates 1 to 6 guests on private charters (just your group and the Captain/Crew).

Many York River Charters guests enjoy stalking their prey by sight-casting lures, live, and dead baits from the tower while aboard our open express sportfisher, Current Addiction. Some of the species we target by sight casting include Cobia, Striped Bass (Stripers, Rockfish), Bluefish, and Red Drum (Redfish). Luckily for our guests, all of these fish are fine table fare. For those who have had less than satisfactory results with Bluefish dishes, ask Capt. Alan for some preparation tips. 😉

If you are looking for a captain who does everything to put you on fish, is very knowledgeable on the local water, has... plentiful and reliable equipment, and is friendly, personable & accommodating, you have to go with Captain Alan! We had the BEST day on the water today! He hit several spots and we caught fish we had been wanting to catch, but never had (tautog, sheepshead, puffer, and more!). His mate, Bradley, was efficient, knowledgeable, friendly, and capable. We can’t wait to plan our next trip for the next season of fish!read more

Captain Alan put us on the fish immediately and kept us on them for the entire charter. He handled some rookie... fishermen with grace and went the extra mile to make it an enjoyable time for everyone. I have fished with many charter captains and I would rank Alan as one of the very best. I highly recommend York River Charters!read more
