What You Can Catch on a Charter Boat Mako II Trip
Experience the best deep-sea fishing in Rhode Island with MAKO II—where safety, expertise, and excitement come together for an unforgettable adventure!
Striped bass are a favorite among anglers in our area. They’re strong, fast, and can put up a great fight — not to mention they’re delicious. In spring and fall, striper fishing is red-hot near the coast, and our experienced captain knows all the best spots to find them.
Best Time to Catch: Spring through early summer and again in fall
Tackle Used: Live bait, jigs, and trolling setups
Bluefish are fast, aggressive, and tons of fun to catch. They strike hard and fight harder, making them a thrill for beginners and seasoned pros alike. These fish travel in schools, so when we find them, it’s game on!
Best Time to Catch: Late spring through summer
Tackle Used: Spoons, plugs, and bait rigs
Cod fishing takes us a bit farther offshore for a deep-sea adventure. Cod are bottom dwellers known for their tasty, flaky fillets. These trips are perfect for anglers who want to target big fish in deeper waters.
Best Time to Catch: Late winter through early spring
Tackle Used: Heavy jigs and bait rigs near wrecks and ledges
Flounder, also known as fluke, are sneaky flatfish that lie on the ocean floor waiting to ambush prey. They’re challenging to hook and even more fun to catch — not to mention excellent on the grill.
Best Time to Catch: Late spring through summer
Tackle Used: Bucktail jigs, squid, and spearing combos
Blackfish are tough fighters with big teeth and even bigger attitudes. These reef-dwelling fish require skill and patience but reward anglers with firm, flavorful meat and an exciting challenge.
Best Time to Catch: Fall
Tackle Used: Crabs, heavy rigs, and a little finesse
