With more than 30 years of fishing experience under his belt and three boats later, Captain Drew was determined to create the ultimate chartering vessel. Big Worm made its first debut in the spring of 2017. Big Worm is a 52' long custom Chesapeake Bay Deadrise built by Millennium Marine equipped with a 900 HP Scania Turbo Diesel Engine. The boat is insured, equipped with extensive safety features and certified by the United States Coast Guard to carry 49 passengers. From corporate team building events to bachelor parties to family reunions, Captain Drew can cater to any occasion. Big Worm is rigged with top of the line tackle and ready to provide you and your party the best fishing experience the Chesapeake Bay has to offer. Reserve your date today!

Fall 2026 update (November 6, 2026): Now that November has arrived, the Worm will soon migrate down the Bay to take advantage of the Black Sea Bass season off Virginia Beach.  Those of you who've been there and experienced this fishery, you know.  If you haven't, round up a crew and reach out to us!  Black Sea Bass are one of the tastiest fish that swims in the ocean.  Give us a shout or a text real soon and get you some awesome Black Sea Bass!

​

Until further notice, we'll be operating out of Fisherman's Wharf Marina 524 Winston Salem Ave., Virginia Beach, VA 23451 -- see Directions.  Weekends are very popular, so send me a text or call soon to book your dates!  Captain  Drew Payne (410-474-4428)
