We normally run a single six-hour trip per day, leaving the dock around 6:00 – 8:00 am (depending on tide) and returning in early afternoon. Our 2010 rate is the same as it has been since 2008:  $485 for up to three people. A fourth person can be accommodated for an additional $50.

We also offer custom-tailored trips, including full-day trips, shorter "low impact" three-or four-hour striper/mackerel fishing excursions in the nearby sheltered bays when scheduling allows. Rates will gladly be furnished on request. We can pick-up and drop-off at many waterfront motels/inns in the Boothbay Region, as well as the Spring Cove dock on Squirrel Island.

We require a $100 deposit on all trips booked in advance. Checks should be made out to Capt. Barry Gibson (19 Royall Rd., East Boothbay, ME 04544). If the Shark Six is unable to go on the day scheduled due to inclement weather, etc., your deposit will be returned in full or we can schedule another day for the trip, your choice. Payment for the deposit and the trip may be made in cash, personal check, or travelers' checks. We regret that we are unable to accept credit cards.
