Jay was outstanding as a guide and the boat was perfect. Great communication, cool guy to hang out with and we had a blast. He put us on snapper, reds and trout. We limited out in 5 hours and came home with thr price of the guide in fresh fish. He cleaned them for us and took pictures for us. We will definitely use him every time. We highly recommended Jay!
My son and I spent the day on the water with Jay. Not only did he put us on an amazing amount of fish but he gave us great insight to the area and I felt like I was hanging out with an old fishing buddy. The variety of fish was amazing for our first charter in the area. But Jay reached out prior to our trip and inquired if there was anything we wanted to target. His instructions were spot on and contributed to our success. I highly recommend a day on the water with Jay…great guy, guide!
had a great trip with Jay! he was very knowledgeable and easy to spend the day with. we got our limit of reds and couldnt ask for a better experience. will definitely be booking with him again.
We were blessed that day. It’s easy to have a great trip when you have great customers like yourselves. I enjoyed getting to know y’all and look forward to seeing you again soon. Thank you, Capt Jay
