Our Story
THE AREA:
Stanley Sport Fishing is based out of Duxbury, Massachusetts. This central location in MA gives us the option to fish the beautiful and calm waters of Duxbury/Plymouth Bay, or to fish any of the surrounding waters such as Cape Cod, the Islands and the famous Stellwagen Bank. We can customize any charter towards where the fish are biting. We are not limited to one area like some of the larger charter boats, instead we can trailer to any of the boat ramps in our area. This way you are always put on the fish, no matter where they are!
THE BOAT:
STANLEY is a 1999 23 SeaCraft. Renowned for their legendary rides in soft seas, I believe the 23 SeaCraft to be the best 23 foot fishing boat available! Stanley is fully rigged to chase Striped Bass and Bluefin Tuna.
THE FISH:
We primarily target Striped Bass, the most prized gamefish in our area. Fishing is not limited to Striped Bass however, as we also offer trips for Bluefish, Flounder, Fluke, Black Sea Bass, Tautog, and Bluefin Tuna. We specialize in live bait fishing, for the most effective and dramatic way to catch large fish.
THE CAPTAIN
Captain Seth Nichols is a USCG certified Captain. Born in the coastal town of Duxbury, MA, Seth was raised on the water. Since the age of 13 Seth has held a Massachusetts Commercial Fishing License and has been fishing the waters in and around Duxbury. He developed a reputation at a young age as a hard worker and skilled fisherman. He makes his living year round off the water, whether it is commercial rod and reel fishing, shellfishing, chasing tuna offshore out to Georges Bank and the Northeast Canyons, or running charters. Recently, over the winter of 2015, Seth went to the famous billfish destination of Los Suenos, Costa Rica to fish for a few months. He has the experience needed to put you on the fish!
