Had a wonderful day out on the upper Potomac. My two teens and I landed 20 fish with some lovely smallmouth and three channel cats. What a great time and we learned a LOT from Captain Rich's instruction.

My son and I had an amazing time spending a day catching shad and catfish with Osprey Fishing Charters. Our guide was knowledgeable, flexible and patient with two inexperienced anglers. He went out of his way to make my son and I comfortable with the equipment and techniques we were using to catch the fish we were going for that day. We ended up catching close to 30 fish, including some “keeper” catfish that have been delicious. He even gave us a very helpful tutorial on how to clean and store them properly. If you’re looking for a fun day out on the water GO HERE! You will not be disappointed. Good restaurant right near the pier for lunch too!

From the moment I spoke to Captain Rich, I could tell he was going to provide the right charter for my 11yr old son and I. Captain Rich was incredible, not only did we catch 90 fish on our full day charter (shad, bass, and large cat fish), we learned a TON. Captain Rich was a natural with my son. He was a great teacher, patient, funny, and overall just an awesome dude. I am 100% going to go back out again. Because of my sons limited attention span ;-) the charter was geared towards catching lots of fish, and Captain Rich delivered!!! My son hasn't stopped talking about and thanking me for such an amazing day of fishing. Book the charter, see for yourself! I am positive you will not be disappointed. You can find some great pics on his site or even find him on Fishbrain @ anglers/ospreyfishingcharters

Captain Rich took me out to try out smallmouth bass fishing for the first time. Let me say that it’s an absolute blast! We had good luck all day.

Really a perfect day on the river with Captain Rich. We reeled in 7 blue catfish within the first few hours. He really knows where the spots are! Rich is a skilled boat operator, and I felt very safe. I’d highly recommend booking a fishing trip with Rich.

I used to fish often when I was younger (20 plus years ago) since I had easy access to the lakes in upstate NY. After I entered the adulthood, life became busy with responsibilities and job obligation. I took a long break from fishing but always wanted to get back in to it. I met captain Rich and we went out to Lake Occoquan on several occasions. We fished for different species every time(large bass, cat fish and shad), just based on the condition for the day. Captain Rich had all the items that we needed for the day. I just showed up, hopped in the boat and we went. No hassle, no stress, and good time. Capt Rich was very professional and courteous. He is very passionate about fishing and knowledgeable around the local waters. I can't speak for someone is an experienced or expert fisherman. If you are somewhat like myself, an average guy who enjoys fishing....highly recommended

I have had the privilege of fishing with Captain Rich more than three times now, all of which were unforgettable experiences! He is very knowledgeable having fished all around the world, with focus on NoVA. The charter is very well organized, and he comes well prepared with all the gear, and teaches you how to use it! Would definitely recommend!

I’ve been out a couple of times with Captain Rich. We did one outing at Occoquan that was a bit of a bust due to conditions, but Rich went out of his way to make sure we had some success. For beginners like me he’ll vary bait and tackle as needed to adjust for the situation so the day ends up on a high note. The second time was a beautiful day on the upper Potomac after some rain where we hooked about 40 smallmouth between us. His boat is ideal for two but you could make things work comfortably with a small third. I plan on booking again and taking one of my sons once they are more comfortable on the water. Overall Rich provides a great fishing experience!

I’m new to fishing, trying to learn some skills to take my kids fishing. Captain Rich has a lot of experience on the Potomac and delivered a fantastic and educational fishing experience. We caught 6 smallmouth bass and a catfish. He had all the gear we needed, I just had to bring myself. Looking forward to the next trip, and may just bring my son so his first fishing trip is a guaranteed blast.

Beautiful day combined with catching several large mouth bass made for a great day on the water. Captain RJ is patient and knowledgeable. I do not have a lot of prior fishing experience but definitely felt better educated at the end of our voyage.
