Policies and Rates

Our goal is to offer you the best experience possible while ensuring a safe and memorable trip.  We offer full and half day charters and pride ourselves on accommodating all ages and abilities. Parents, please be sure that this activity is age appropriate for your child. 

The Vickie Ann is clean and well maintained with top of the line navigational equipment, on-board toilet, spacious cabin, and all fishing gear and tackle necessary for an enjoyable adventure.  Ask us about our Bay and Lighthouse cruises and memorial services.  

Our Rates are Seasonal and among the most reasonable in the Chesapeake Bay area. In the event that you have to cancel, or change the departure date, you must contact us via phone in a timely manner, otherwise your deposit is subject to be forfeited.   

  • The Vickie Ann can accommodate groups up to six persons for fishing trips.

  • Please arrive on time!  A late arrival will cut into your fishing time.

  • Half Day is 6 hours (6am-12pm) or (1pm-7pm) and is $720 requiring a $200 deposit when trip is booked.

  • Deposit fees may be transferred to another day with 2 weeks notice.

  • All licenses, fishing gear, bait and tackle are provided and included.

  • This vessel is fully insured for commercial use and has all required safety equipment.

  • NO SHOW: If you do not arrive for your trip in a reasonable amount of time, or do not arrive at all, your deposit will be forfeited. You must call immediately, if a situation arises that prevents you from keeping your reserved time or date. We will make every effort to accommodate you, if possible. Otherwise we will make other arrangements. 
  • WEATHER POLICY: Determination as to the weather interfering with safe boating is at the discretion of the captain. A later time of departure or date of voyage may be in order, if foul weather threatens the trip. If so, the captain will offer an alternate time or date without risk of losing your deposit.
  • YOU NEED TO BRING: Suitable clothing for unexpected rain, or chilly weather. Wear soft-soled shoes. No hard soled street or dress shoes! Shorts are a good idea in the spring or summer. Bring your own food, beverages, sunscreen, and especially a cooler to take your fish home in a safe manner. We furnish all tackle, fishing equipment, safety gear, and fishing licenses on board the boat.
  • NO ILLEGAL DRUGS:  Illegal drugs are not permitted in the marina, parking area, dock or on-board the boat.
  • FISH CLEANING: Fish cleaning services are available.    
  • TIPPING: The mate works for tips only! You cannot find a service person in any industry that works harder to insure your safety, comfort, and personal enjoyment than a charter boat mate. Our crew is highly skilled, and motivated and always complimented at the end of the cruise. The customary tip is 20% of the total cost of the charter.
