Had a great time fishing with Chas'n Tails!! A few friends and I went for my birthday and it was such a great experience. The Captain was knowledgeable, laid back, and so accommodating. I also caught a huge bass! I would highly recommend using Chas'n Tails Charter Fishing to anyone looking for this kind of activity on the Cape. I'll definitely be booking another trip this summer!

Chas’n Tails is the charter to book for anyone interested in fishing the beautiful lower cape cod area off of Provincetown. Knowing Captain Russ both professionally and personally, I know first hand that Captain Russ truly cares about setting his clients up for success to show them what the lower cape cod fishing area has to offer. If you want a comfortable family vibe and a great opportunity to land trophy fish, I recommend you contact Chas’n Tails Charter asap! #tightlines

If you want the best chartered fishing experience on Cape Cod, this is it hands down. The day was beautiful, the boat was very nice and clean and Captain Russ was such an amazing guy. I have recommended several friends and family to him and he has not disappointed.

I went on a fishing charter with Russ last year, with a group of my girlfriends. Most of us were from cape cod but had never caught a fish before! (Also, I was scared ????) BUT ALAS, his boat was clean and safe, he’s the nicest guy you’ll ever meet, he encourages you without pressure, is calm, kind, and downright passionate about what he does, and we had an absolutely beautiful day. I would highly recommend a charter with Russ, to celebrate your bachelorette/ bachelor party, family reunion, gals/pals weekend, or as a gift to someone that you love. Thanks again Russ for a beautiful day. Looking forward to doing it again!
