Mid Atlantic

Mid-Atlantic Luxury Sportfish Charter Experience

Booking a Mid-Atlantic luxury sportfish charter with Black Book Charters means gaining access to one of the most competitive and rewarding fisheries in the country. This stretch of coastline—from Ocean City, Maryland, to Cape May, New Jersey—offers direct runs to prolific offshore grounds, including the Poor Man’s, Washington, Baltimore, and Wilmington canyons. These deepwater ledges are magnets for white and blue marlin, yellowfin and bigeye tuna, mahi-mahi, wahoo, and more during peak season.

Ocean City is the epicenter of the region’s offshore scene. Every summer, the marina buzzes with anticipation as teams prepare for the White Marlin Open, the largest billfish tournament in the world. Our fleet includes tournament-rigged sportfish boats, fully equipped to compete at the highest level. Whether you're chasing a check or just chasing flags, you’ll be fishing on a boat that performs like it’s been there before—because it has.

Further north, Cape May offers strategic access to canyon waters and a storied fishing tradition of its own. The area is known for bigeye tuna, particularly on overnight trips, as well as blue and white marlin, swordfish, and deep drop species. With quick access to the continental shelf, Cape May is a perfect departure point for full-day and multi-day charters targeting big game. Our crews know the runs, the breaks, and how to dial in a spread for high hook-up ratios, even in pressured water.

Our boats are privately owned and captain-maintained, and every detail is optimized for offshore success. From sonar and radar to rigging and redundancy, these aren’t off-the-rack charters—they’re top-tier machines built to raise fish and ride comfortably in unpredictable Mid-Atlantic conditions.

What sets Black Book apart in the Mid-Atlantic is more than just our gear—it’s our crew depth and execution. Our captains and mates are experienced, highly tactical, and well-versed in the regional nuances of this fast-moving fishery. Whether you're looking to grind a canyon overnight or finesse a marlin bite on light tackle, we bring the knowledge and focus to make it happen.

Planning to fish a tournament? We’ve got you covered. From the MidAtlantic in Cape May to the Ocean City Tuna Tournament, we handle all logistics: entries, dockage, pre-fishing, provisioning, and strategy. You focus on the bite—we’ll handle the rest.

For anglers who want to experience the Mid-Atlantic offshore fishery at the highest level, Black Book Charters offers unmatched access, professionalism, and performance. When every minute and every drop back counts, we’re the team you want on your side.
