Meet Captain Benjamin Sussman

Captain Ben Sussman has spent more than a decade fishing the coastal waters of Cape Cod, building a solid reputation as a dependable and knowledgeable guide. A USCG-licensed captain and CPR-certified professional, Ben brings a strong sense of safety and preparation to every trip. His fishing journey began when he was just five years old, and that early curiosity has grown into a lifelong dedication to the sport.

Ben specializes in light tackle inshore fishing, with a focus on Striped Bass and False Albacore. He’s known for his skill with large topwater plugs, a technique that brings big surface strikes and exciting action. His personal bests include numerous 30- to 40-pound class stripers, and he’s always looking to raise the bar. Whether targeting fish in shallow water or working bait schools, Ben applies deep local knowledge to put anglers in the right place at the right time.

What truly sets Ben apart is his patient and welcoming approach to guiding. He enjoys teaching and works well with all experience levels, from first-timers to seasoned anglers. His enthusiasm for fishing is contagious, and he’s always happy to share insights on technique, gear, and reading the water. For Ben, success is about more than the catch—it’s about creating a great day on the water for every guest.

Captain Ben runs his charters aboard a 25-foot center console powered by twin 200HP Yamaha outboards. The boat is equipped for a wide range of nearshore and inshore trips, from Cape Cod Bay to the rocky coastlines of Martha’s Vineyard and the Elizabeth Islands. Designed for speed, comfort, and flexibility, it can accommodate up to four anglers while maintaining a smooth, efficient ride. Whether fishing tight structure or covering open water, the boat offers a dependable and comfortable platform for your next trip.
