*********PRESENTLY NOT BOOKING ANY CHARTERS*********
Welcome to EJ Charters! Here you will find information about fishing the amazing Long Island Sound and Connecticut River. Your guide, Captain Eric Wilder, has over 20 years experience fishing these great bodies of water. He is a U.S.C.G. Licensed charter captain and a master at finding the bite with many styles of fishing. Whether you are looking to drift live bait through the many rips for that monster bass or throw top water hardware at the explosive bluefish blitzes, Captain Eric has the knowledge, experience, and the gear to get the job done. EJ Charters operates a 2003 20' Maritime Skiff equipped with an 115hp Suzuki and the latest marine electronics for our clients safety. We feel it is the perfect Northeast fishing vessel.
Here at EJ Charters we specialize in light tackle fishing for Striped Bass, Bluefish, False Albacore, Blackfish, Fluke, Flounder, Porgy, and Hickory Shad. One of our specialties is fishing the tube and worm on hot summer days. These are great family outings that allow for a pleasurable outing enjoying the outdoors, getting a tan, and catching a fish. Extra effort in providing our clients with a rewarding and memorable experience is our mission!
