We've been going out with Jake for several years now and have always had great trips. He's courteous and professional but also personable and very helpful with our special needs daughter in helping her catch fish.
Captain Jake put is over a shipwreck. Caught our limit of Amber Jack in 25 minutes. Also caught some grey trout. Great time was had by all. Thanks Jake!

Jake was great. Caught a lot of red fish including 51 incher. Great day and one of rhe best guides I have ever had the pleasure of fishing with.

Thanks again! I enjoyed fishing with you guys and hope we can do it again!
Mr. Jake Dempsey was great, very personable which is so helpful and goes a long way in his business, my wife was a little nervous and Jake was very helpful explaining to her how to fight and land the bluefish we were catching, as you know are a great fighting. To tell you a little more or his character he noticed a boat stuck on sandbar, stop to successfully help. Jake was very knowledgeable of the area we fished, fishing was fantastic for my 14 year old son's first charter fishing trip, we could have caught blue fish all day, but Jake first tried to sight fish for shark and that was exciting just seeing them swimming around, back to more bluefish and what an incredible way to end the day by doubling up one Sandbar and once my son Cooper got it to th boat the second pole began to go and the fight was on with a very nice size Blacktip shark...it was a great fight and an amazing experience for my wife Debbie, myself but one I know and hope for a very long time if not his lifetime and amazing time and memory for my son Cooper...truly thankful to Mr. Jake Dempsey for this opportunity and just an over great fishing experience.
Captain Jake is my "go to" guide for fishing in the OBX. Every trip has been amazing and this was no different. We caught large sheep head to start the day, including TWO citation fish. Spent a little time looking for drum and then hit a school. With six on board it was fast and furious with two or three on at a time. Limited in 30 or 45 minutes and were back at the dock. As always Capt Jake was patient w the first time fishers and everyone had a great time! Everyone caught a couple great fish and had an awesome day. Cant wait til our next trip. If you want to have a great day call Team Dempsey!
