BIG WORM CHARTER FISHING
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!
​
We proudly serve customers from the Washington Metropolitan Area including but not limited to Annapolis, Kent Island, Rock Hall, Easton, Chesapeake Beach, Prince Frederick, Baltimore, Potomac, Silver Spring, Chevy Chase, McLean, Alexandria, Arlington, Reston, Manassas, Virginia Beach, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
​
NOTE: November 19, 2024: It's that time of year when the Big Worm migrates south to fish the ocean out of Virginia Beach. We're now booking for Black Sea Bass, and Bluefin Tuna when they show up. We have a handful of dates available. Season closes the end of December.
