Charlie and Coleen run a great operation. Friendly, flexible, and knowledgeable. You could pay more for a fishing charter or scenic cruise...but why? Thanks...we will be back! More

Well I wish I would have visited the island before Irene she messed up the fishing around the island. I fished on the Sand Bar and the surf and the bay but nothing. I had a nice boat trip on the Island Queen. I saw tons of birds and took plenty of pictures. I'm sure if Irene didnt arrive I... More

We have yet to go to Chincoteague Island and not have had a trip planned on the Island Queen. We enjoy our boating trips very much. Captain Charlie goes above and beyond to make your boating experience enjoyable. We have fished, clammed and have taken sightseeing trips with them. If you get to the Island make sure you look up...

We had an incredible time fishing with Captain Charlie!! My fishing experience is limited, but he was extremely helpful. Charlie was unbelievably knowledgeable, not to mention entertaining, throughout the day. We learned a lot about the island and it's history. Thanks Charlie and Colleen, see you next year!!! More

My friends came for a visit and we decided to take a sunset boat tour around the Island. The Koski's were perfect - the boat was comfortable, the Koski's knowledgeable and fun! Great sense of humor. Reasonably priced,too. We all give them 5 Stars! More

Took the afternoon fishing trip with 2 pre-teen boys and got to experience flounder fishing for the first time. Chose the Island Queen for the pontoon boat stability, great recommendations and the fact the boat had some shade! Can't imagine being on a boat for 4 hours without protection from the sun. Glad I brought my camera to get photos... More

We had a group of four fisherman and with Captain Charlie's help, they all caught between 3-6 fish a piece and we took home enough flounder filets for two meals. We went out of the early trip 8a-12noon which seemed to be a popular time for fishing. The boat was nothing fancy, but rustic comfort and exactly what we needed... More

Had a lot of fun. Capt. Charlie is very knowledgable and professional. I went with two teenage grandsons and he worked hard to find us fish. We were on a half day morning trip and would definitely go again. I look forward to next summer's vacation and more fishing with Capt. Charlie.. More

My girlfriend and I went out on the Island Queen for a four-hour fishing trip and we had an excellent time. The fishing was a bit slow to start, but once Captain Charlie turned on some Jimmy Buffett music, things picked up. We ended up bringing in a couple of nice flounders and a surprising shark. Charlie and Colleen were... More
