6 hour trip (AM) nearshore/jettys
Good time, expected different fishing location
Jason was a great captain! He baited and casted my line 95% of the time as im not an experienced fisher. Wish my Dad and i would have caught more fish, but we still had a great time! The only thing is that my dad and I thought we were doing “near shore” fishing meaning the ocean shoreline, not the port shoreline. As the website read they go up to 5 miles off shore. That’s why we took a 6 hour trip because we thought it would give us more time to fish in different places in the ocean. And that was not the case. We prepared to fish for bigger fish one finds in the ocean, yet since we were in the port, the majority of fish were small. A bit disappointing but I guess I should have confirmed this upon booking. Just note to those looking to book, confirm all of this before you book your trip. all in all it was a nice day, and as mentioned, Jason was great!

6 Hour Trip offshore
Offshore with Captain Jay and Randy
We took our boys 17 and 15 offshore fishing with Jay and Randy. The day was hot, but the Atlantic was calm and clear. We didn’t get into a mess of fish but we had some hits and ended up with a decent size Kingfish that will feed us for a couple of days! Jay and Randy made sure there were always lines in the water and would switch it up if we weren’t getting any hits. I can’t recommend these guys enough. They were great with the boys. Down to earth. Knew what the heck they were doing and easy to have a conversation with. When we come back to the area we will definitely be hitting ShayJay up again.

A great birthday present !
I booked this trip as a birthday present for my boyfriend. He loved it! We had to pull into the docks at one point because of lightning, but we went back out after a few minutes to let some of it pass. Mother nature does what she wants haha, so we didn't mind. My boyfriend caught lots of fish and our Captain kindly prepared one of the snappers that my boyfriend caught. We had a wonderful adventure despite the inclement weather.

Great Fishing PM Half Day
Great fishing trip with my 23 year old son. Guide was very helpful and we fished a number of different spots. We had an interest in space and did a brief sight seeing tour to a Space X rocket. We caught a variety of fish including a 22 inch flounder and two mangrove snapper that we ate for dinner at Grills restaurant.

6 Hour Trip offshore
Old man winter didn't stop us from catching fish
When I was looking for a "family friendly" guide for my son's first saltwater fishing trip, I came across ShayJay. I am so glad we booked with him. Jason and his Dad, Randy made sure my son's hook always had bait on it and put him on fish. My son really wanted to go offshore but old man winter started blowing so we had to relocate inshore. No problem for Jason! As soon as we got in calmer water, BAM! Fish on. Will definitely book with ShayJay again later this year.
