About this boat
Ocean City bay specialist since 2001. Capt. Nick Clemente, family-friendly half-days from OCFC.
Get Sum Charters has marketed Ocean City bay trips since 2001 under Capt. Nick Clemente (USCG 100-ton master). The core boat is a 26-foot bay platform with shade and a head—built for families who want flounder, trout, crabbing, or clamming without a canyon invoice.
Published packages include short 2-hour and 4-hour bay clocks with a six-angler maximum. The operator also markets custom trips on Ivy Sea, a Pathfinder 2600, for nearshore wreck, tog, sea bass, cobia, and rockfish windows—ask which hull your reservation covers.
Ocean City Fishing Center staging keeps the meet in West Ocean City. Bring sun protection, soft drinks, and realistic expectations for summer bay boat traffic.
This is not an offshore white-marlin product. If your group wants tuna, book a six-pack canyon boat instead of stretching a bay ticket past its design.

Marina & meet-up
Ocean City Fishing Center
West Ocean City’s harbor clusters a heavy share of private charters and canyon sportfish around the Ocean City Fishing Center and neighboring docks. Summer mornings stack fast—treat parking, ice, and gate names like airport timing, not beach time.
GPS pins and roster addresses do not always match the walk your crew uses; confirm the operator’s meet gate, lot, and whether you stage at a charter office versus a named face on the water.
FishingBooker listing
We did not verify a dedicated FishingBooker storefront for Get Sum Sport Fishing Charters as of 2026-04. Many Ocean City six-packs and head boats still book phone-first or through a marina desk—FishingBooker remains useful to benchmark trip SKUs and seasonal pricing, then confirm this hull on the call.

Secret Fisherman review
Secret Fisherman — Get Sum
This is the “kids + crabs + flounder” lane, not the canyon hero shot. Cross-read OCFC copy with the operator site before you expect tuna photos.
Guests like approachable hours; they sometimes underestimate wind vs mosquitoes—ask about meet and bug plan.
FAQ
- Is Get Sum an offshore canyon charter?
- No—the core product is bay fishing, crabbing, and clamming. Custom nearshore trips exist on Ivy Sea; canyon white-marlin days belong on larger six-packs.
