Beth Ann Charters

An experienced crew, a comfortable & powerful boat along with a convenient location make Beth Ann the best choice for your fishing trip. Owner Captain Rich Wood personally captains the majority of all the trips, while Captain Mike Rathgeber handles a lot of the afternoon and evening trips when Captain Rich is home babysitting his grand-nephew Benjamin.

I've gone out on the Beth Ann with friends who know how to land a fish and friends who have never held a rod - Captain Rich is the master at finding the fish and making sure everyone has a great time. The boat is clean and beautiful and whether you want to find some striped bass or just kick back on your own private whale watch, this is the place to be.

Witness gigantic humpbacks, finbacks and more, or the ever dangerous great whites in their natural habitat. If you've ever been on a large whale watching excursion and known the frustration of trying to see around other people, or having to run from one side of the boat to another every time a spout is spotted, this trip is for you!

Our trip was a little different from most.we were on the Cape to fulfill our mom's last wishes, to have her ashes returned to the ocean she loved. Captain Rich provided several location options for her "burial at sea". When the time came, he was very discreet and allowed the six of us all the time we needed to say goodbye and compose ourselves before continuing on.

Thousands of smaller stripers making it a habit of coming to the top in a frenzied boil up our way. Then 45623 boats zoom in and the fish go down. Right when you think all the fish are short, you get 2 at once that are well over the 35 inch slot limit. Back into the water. Funny part both me and our customer forgot our phones, so no pics!
