Had a very enjoyable fishing charter with Captain Paul on the Obsessed boat. The boat is 20'ft long…read morejust the right size for the two of us & the captain. My brother-in-law was allowed to bring his own fly rod and gear. Captain Paul grew up helping his father with charters & now the two run the business together. Captain Paul, knew the area like the back of his hand which made me feel at ease with the thick fog we started the charter with. First half hour spent catching mackerel for bait. We only had to make one close stop, right on top of a school of mackerel. Every time we put our line down in the water came up with 1,2, or 3 mackerel. Captain Paul made it easy, taking the mackerel off our hooks & putting them in the bait box. No slimy, fishy hands. Next up was fishing for striper bass. Had a lot of action. I lost count how many fish we were able to land. Brother-in-law was even getting rapid strikes on his fly. Sometimes had both of us reeling in stripers at the same time. Once that area became quite back towards the wharf. Saw two basking sun fish, Mola Mola, what weird looking creatures. Captain Paul's knowledge was very informative. He would advise my brother-in-law when asked & even let him use some of his flies. Captain Paul's full time job during the off season, school teacher. Very apparent with his patience & willing to share his knowledge. Next we stopped over a huge school of pogies. Captain Paul said many times the large striper bass are below the school and on the outside rim of them. I had several bites but just not able to hook and land them. Then the four hours was up. Unfortunately, we did not catch any striper bass large enough to keep. To me it didn't matter, throughly enjoyed myself. I would highly recommend Obsessed Fishing Charter. Side note, two charter boats recently collided in the area we were in. The news didn't report that the large boat that rescued those from the small capsized boat, that the other large boat was one of their own in the collision. I won't give my negative opinion about theses large party boats. But I felt completely safe with Captain Paul on a smaller boat.

Captain Dan took us out for a half day fishing trip. He did an awesome job. And I don't say that…read morejust because we caught fish but because he made the whole experience special, like we were family! First, the three of us in the trip were seniors and one had mobility difficulties that made getting in and out of the boat dufficult.. Capt. Dan found solutions and make accommodations that made it easy as possible. Thank you! Once in the boat, Capt.Dan quickly adapted to what we wanted to do. He clearly loves fishing and being on the water. He knows the area around Gloucester, near shore and out a ways so he could quickly adapt to sea conditions and ensure our best chances for catching fish. He let us set our level of involvement, whether just sitting back as he trolled, with rods in the holders, or holding the rod and actively fishing. He used both live bait (mackerel that we actually fished for) and trolling lures. On this trip we caught a couple of the biggest fish I've ever caught! A 32 inch bluefish that really put the word sport into sport fishing! And a 42 inch striper that easily weighed 30 pounds. Both were caught near shore in protected areas with minimal chop (one of our party surprisingly got seasick..a first for her and to which he adapted immediately). We even cast a couple of lines as we tied up at the dock and he cleaned our fish. We almost caught another striper! Like I said Captain Dan went above and beyond for our party, ensuring we had a great day on the water. He made us feel like family! I highly recommend this charter!

I've been on several big "Party Boat" charters in the area and this was our first private small…read morecharter. I can't say enough about how great a day we had. From my first inquiry with Captain Josh I knew we would have a great day. Unlike other charter captains I spoke with, he listened to what I was looking for and what I wanted to get out of the day. He gave us that and more! We were on board the "Annah Hunter" which provided a fast quiet ride out to the fishing grounds. Captain Josh's mate, April was incredible. Like I said I've been on several big "Party Boats' and I wouldn't take 2 of their mates for April. She was so attentive to everything going on it was awesome. From removing fish to changing lures to even helping us bait our hooks she was all over it so that we could spend as much time actually fishing as possible. And fishing......Captain Josh had us on the fish constantly. Every place we dropped we caught fish and we caught very few dogs. I can't say enough about the crew they were so attentive to everything that we needed. I would absolutely recommend them highly for a charter and I will unquestionably use them again.

As a grandparent, what made the trip even more special was watching my grandson experience his very first fishing charter, and the captain and crew went above and beyond to make sure it was a day he will never forget. From the moment we stepped on board, we felt welcome, comfortable, and safe. The crew was incredibly attentive, and made sure we all had fun every step of the way. Seeing the excitement on my grandson's face when he caught his first Striper was a memory I will treasure forever. We came hoping to catch Stripers, and they made sure we did! Their knowledge, dedication, and hard work ensured everyone on board had a successful and enjoyable experience. It was clear that they genuinely cared about making sure every guest had a great time. Safety was always a top priority, and the captain and crew were professional, friendly, and knowledgeable throughout the trip. Their enthusiasm for fishing and commitment to their guests truly set them apart. The memories we made that day will stay with us for years to come. If you're looking for a family-friendly charter that is focused on safety, fun, and making sure everyone has an unforgettable experience, I highly recommend Harvester Fishing Charters. We can't wait to book another trip!

Best family lobster tour ever! We booked a tour for our three-year-old son, whose sole goal on our…read moretrip to Maine/NH was to go on a lobster boat. This trip did not disappoint. Capt. Jim and Tom were extremely patient and thoughtful with him, letting him measure the lobsters, put on the rubber bands and otherwise get hands-on as much as he wanted (which was a LOT). They also tailored the tour to his (quirky, 3-year-old) interests, letting him fulfill another dream of fishing with a full-size rod (he caught three pogies, and is still talking about it), and circling around a huge navigational buoy he was mesmerized by (Tom: "It's big. It's red. It dings. What's not to love?"). I can't recommend these folks highly enough!
