Local waters, honest guiding.

Tailing Edge Sportfishing runs out of Nanticoke Harbor on the lower Chesapeake, where tidal rivers meet open bay and the fishing changes with every season.

Whether it's your first cast or your five-hundredth, we put you on fish, keep the deck comfortable, and make sure the day feels like time well spent on the water.

A 24' Romarine, built for a full day on the water.

The Vessel

A 24' Romarine, built for a full day on the water.

Our 24-foot Romarine offers a comfortable, stable ride powered by a brand-new Suzuki 225 outboard — dependable, worry-free power for a full day on the water. Add enclosed cabin seating for when the wind picks up, and wide, uncluttered deck space so everyone on board has room to cast, fight a fish, and net a catch without stepping over each other.

Enclosed Cabin

Sheltered seating out of the sun, wind, and spray — a comfortable place to warm up or ride out a squall between bites.

Open Deck Space

A wide, unobstructed cockpit gives every angler room to fish, move, and land a catch without crowding.

Comfortable Groups

Plenty of room for the whole crew, with easy footing and grab rails throughout for a stable, relaxed ride.

Brand-New Suzuki 225

A brand-new Suzuki 225 outboard delivers dependable, worry-free performance so you spend more time fishing and less time worrying about the ride out and back.
