Captain Pete consistently delivers outstanding fishing results in the Milford and Stratford waterways, with customers regularly catching striped bass, bluefish, and sand sharks.

We ran into some unexpected tough fishing conditions. But Pete handled it like the pro he is. He was determined to put us on some fish, and he certainly did just that. We were extremely happy with the bluefish and striped bass we reeled in. Pete's knowledge about and enthusiasm for fishing are apparent the minute you step on his boat. And to top it off, he's a really fun guy to fish with. Highly recommended.

Rising Tide Fishing was an awesome experience. Captain Pete keeps a well stocked boat and is extremely knowledgeable on the Milford and Stratford waterways. We bagged four Striped bass and a few Sand sharks. Solid dude who goes out of his way to make a memorable fishing experience. I'll certainly be getting back out there!

Capt Pete took my wife out for a memorable evening of Striper fishing. Not only did he find the fish, but he was flexible with time to get us out at peak hours, and was just an all around great and knowledgeable guy to spend an evening with. We couldn't recommend him any more strongly. If you're in the area, you will have a great time with Capt Pete!

I highly recommend this trip, especially if you’re looking for an exhilarating fishing experience. Captain Pete works tirelessly to put you on the fish, constantly adjusting and repositioning the boat to keep you in the action. Unlike other charters that may not go the extra mile, he ensures you’re always in the best spot. This style of fishing is also a refreshing change from diamond jigging, which can feel repetitive and tiring. With Rising Tide, you’ll enjoy the excitement of actively casting and targeting fish where they’re biting. It’s an unbeatable experience!

What a great time we had. Fish were not biting like I’d hope but we each caught a good sized Striped Bass. Captain Pete worked really hard fighting the tide and a stiff breeze. We are looking forward to go again when the fish might be more active.

It’s rare to find a captain as enthusiastic as Captain Pete. From start to finish, he’s fully dedicated to ensuring you have an incredible experience. My son and I had the most fun we’ve had fishing in years. If you’re passionate about fishing, Captain Pete is the one to call. With a fantastic boat, top-notch gear, and an amazing captain, it all adds up to an unforgettable trip!

Our fishing trip with Captain Peter was hands down the most outstanding experience we've had. His exceptional communication skills and commitment to ensuring our satisfaction made it a truly memorable outing. We were able to catch more than 20 fish of varying sizes, and I highly recommend him as a charter for anyone looking to fish. I would definitely choose to fish with Captain Peter again if I ever return to the area.

My 14-year-old son and I had a wonderful father-son fishing trip. Captain Pete's expertise and patience in teaching us how to catch a striper were greatly appreciated. Thanks to him, I was able to catch my first fish ever! We both had an enjoyable time on the trip.
