Strongly recommend Stella Charters
We had a great day of fishing with Captain Eric and first mate Tim. They shared their knowledge fishing and the bay, saw that we caught our limit, cleaned the fish and vacuum sealed. Boat and gear were first class. If you want to catch fish and have a good time in the Chesapeake I strongly recommend Stella Charters.
