  • Captain Rick and his crew are the BEST! Nora & José were SO helpful and kind to our group of beginner fisherman. We had such a good time and caught SO many fish. 10/10! Thank you Captain Rick!!!

    I went with a group of women with the NH BOW and this charter was top notch. Captain Rick found us the best fishing spots and all of us were hauling in fish. Even with 15+ of us aboard they were right there to help when needed (tangles, the shark grabbing our bait or fish on the line), and getting all our fish cleaned and filleted so we could bring home our prizes. Also, a huge shout out to the crew - Matt, Adam and Rick for being stellar! When I go deep sea fishing again, this is the charter I will choose and also recommend. Thanks again for a great time.

    Fantastic day of haddock! I took my 18 and 10 year old sons for a marathon day, and Captain Rick had us on fish all day, from the first stop to the last drop, with keeper haddock throughout. The crew mates, Joe and Eddie worked tirelessly all over the boat making sure everyone had success, whether it was untangling lines, unhooking fish or filleting fish for everyone. It was a smaller boat than most I’ve been on, so the waves do affect it more, but the trade off of a much smaller crowd was worth it. The boat seemed in great shape and the top deck was a perfect place to hang out or rest whenever the boat moved to a new location. I’ve done deep sea fishing all up and down the New England coastline, and I can say without hesitation, Yellow Bird wins! I’ve found the charter I’ll take whenever the sea starts beckoning again! Thanks to Captain Rick and everyone at Yellow Bird! You’re all fantastic!

    Awesome 10 hour trip. We caught lots of haddock and pollock. A couple cod we had to throw back. It was really fun. The crew was great with my 3 kids (age 9, 10 and 10). They showed them how to work the reel and feel for bites. The Capt helped out too (other than just getting us onto on the fish!). The boat was not over crowded. We have fish in our fridge and freezer! We will absolutely use these guys again. 10 hour trip worth it for the less crowded boat and the time to get out to better fishing grounds. Also, the reservation lady was great. Answers the phone, and follows up. It’s old school customer service!
