    Wonderful morning!

    3 HR SHRIMP/CRAB (MID DAY) on August 20, 2026 • 2 adults

    3-hour charter catching shrimp and crabs. We learned so much about the fisheries, and brought home a bushel of crabs and 2 big bags of shrimp!! Incredible experience seeing the whole process, we would highly recommend. Spotless boat, and Jamie and Fisher are some of the nicest people I have ever met on the water. Can’t wait to get back!

    3 hr AM FISHING on August 12, 2026 • 6 adults • 2 children

    The fish weren’t biting due to recent storm activity so Captain Jamie pivoted and took us shrimping and crabbing but made sure our 11 yo got to put a rod in the water to try his hand at catching a few fish. Captain Jamie and First mate Fisher were very helpful and informative. We had a great time.

    Chad was super nice and chatty, took us right to the spot, and because he felt bad he pulled up a bunch of blue crab for us. No complaints, would recommend.

    Exceptional Charter Experience

    3 HR SHRIMP/CRAB (MID DAY) on July 10, 2025 • 4 adults

    My family and I took a three hour shrimp and crab charter and have nothing but amazing things to share. Jamie and his son Fisher were extremely friendly, knowledgeable and enjoyable to be with. They have a pristine boat equip with a cooler available for guests to bring refreshments. Jamie walked us step by step through the crabbing and shrimping process and with left with enough food to feed a small army. We would highly recommend to anyone looking for an amazing experience!

    Fun in the sun with lots of crabs and shrimp!

    3 HR SHRIMP/CRAB (MID DAY) on July 29, 2024 • 4 adults

    We had a great time on the water today. This was a great experience and something different from the traditional fishing charter. Pulling shrimp nets and crab pots was a blast. The kids had a blast sorting through the shrimp to find the best keepers. First Mate, Fisher was great and helpful! Great tour for all ages. Huge thanks to Captain Jamie for the tip on where to take our catch as well. Within about 30 min we had our entire catch cooked and ready to eat (about a bushel of blue crabs and 20 pounds of shrimp). Would highly recommend!

    I went with my son and his friends ages 10-12. Everyone had a fantastic time. The captain and first mate were knowledgeable and friendly and so helpful with the boys. I would highly recommend this trip! We caught a ton of crabs and some large trout! Had a delicious dinner that night.

Great Experience
3 Hour Trip – Shrimp/Crab on July 27, 2026 • 2 adults • 4 children

We had a great trip, my family went with kids from 5 to 17 and Capn Jamie and first mate were great with them.We caught plenty of shrimp and crabs that one of my sons was excited to get home and eat. Jamie told us of some of the local attractions and pointed out landmarks, also gave me a quick refresher in preparing the crabs. I would recommend him to anyone.

Friendly Captain!
3 hr AM FISHING on August 13, 2026 • 4 adults

We very much enjoyed fishing with Captain Jamie and his first mate Fisher. Both were attentive to our needs and knowledgeable about the area. They made the experience very pleasant, fun, and we loved that the boat had a big canopy that kept us comfortable on a very hot and sunny day. We have been on many charters and I highly recommend them!
