David LewisRepeat angler5.0VerifiedFlexible and friendly
4 Hour Trip (Evening) on August 13, 2026 • 6 adultsWe wanted to catch a bunch of fish, and hopefully something good to eat. After trolling and catching tons of bluefish, we asked if we could try for sea bass, triggerfish ad flounder. Captain Chris pivoted, and we caught a bunch of those!
Jake JafariRepeat angler4.7VerifiedGreat Trip w/ Capt. Chris
4 Hour Trip (AM) on July 26, 2026 • 6 adults5 of us went out and caught a bunch of Spanish Mackerel and Bluefish. The trip was great! Capt. Chris and his mate Anthony got us on fish within the first few minutes of putting lines in the water. Great day fishing and would recommend Action Jackson for a trip whether you’re going with family or a more experienced group.
Tayson Merkel5.0VerifiedAwesome trip!

6 Hour Trip - Bottom Fishing on July 13, 2024 • 3 adultsWeather was not good for our schedule trip. Captain Chris was very good at keeping us informed. He had to cancel our original trip do to weather reports. He was able to offer us the next day due to another cancelation. We were hoping for some flounder, but we caught so many sea bass, the action was none stop. The bonus was we hooked into 3 sandbar sharks. Even though they are protected we were able to get them to the boat and release them.. Highly recommend ACTION JACKSON Captain Chris and 1st Mate Zach. Will surely be booking with them next year.
Timothy Benson5.0VerifiedHalf Day Shark Trip with Captain Chris (Action Jackson Charters)
4 Hour Trip (PM) on July 13, 2023 • 5 adultsMy family and I are visiting Rehoboth from Upstate NY (Rochester) and went on a Shark trip with Captain Chris. He couldn’t have been nicer & made the trip fun for my boys. He was very knowledgeable and gave us a lot of information about salt water fishing and the sharks. The weather was dicey with some wind and water was a little rough. We didn’t have anything after the first hour and a half & was getting a little worried. Chris told us not to worry & that he was confident we’d catch some. We caught two beautiful Tiger Sand sharks (one quite large). The first one we caught was about 7 feet long and 250-300lbs. I was shocked by the size as we got it to the boat. The boys were elated by this experience & have a camera full of pics with amazing pics & videos. I can’t say enough about Captain Chris and this experience. I highly recommend - especially a Shark Trip!! Thank you, Captain Chris. :)
Joe SvonavecRepeat angler5.0VerifiedJuly fishing trip
8 Hour Trip – Flounder on July 17, 2024 • 4 adultsSeas were to rough to make it out to our 20 mile destination for flounder and sea bass. Since we were in town for just the week we could not reschedule the trip. Instead of cancelling the trip the captain christopher did his best to accommodate the situation and put us on some shark fishing and inlet fishing. Zack, his first mate was an all around great guy. We definitely had a great trip highly recommend this outfit.
Jacquelyn Hummer5.0VerifiedExceptional fishing experience!!
4 Hour Trip (Evening) on June 19, 2024 • 2 adultsAbsolutely AMAZING time on the water with Capt Chris and Zach with Action Jackson Sportfishing last night!! These guys were fantastic!! We couldn’t have asked for a better time!! Honest and straight forward guys who made sure we got the best fishing experience the ocean had to offer!! Thanks to both of them for a fishing experience of a lifetime!! If you want great fishing get on board with these guys!!
Cindy GallagherRepeat angler5.0VerifiedSharks were hungry!
4 Hour Trip (PM) on June 20, 2024 • 6 adults • 4 childrenGreat experience with Captain Chris and Zach. Sharks weren’t biting at first due to tidal change. Chris and Zach were patient, engaged the kids (14, 13 and 11) and sure enough as the tide changed in came the hungry sharks! We pulled in five which gave everyone a turn reeling them in. Even the youngest had a turn at the reel with Zach and Chris’s help. Great day on the water!

Captain Chris and First Mate Anthony were professional, patient, and friendly. The boat is comfortable, and clean. Our family enjoyed our 4 hour trip and caught tons of blue fish. We had a bunch cleaned and prepped at the bait and tackle and brought it home for dinner. We definitely do another trip with this crew. Great communication prior to the trip as well!
thank you and look forward to having you all on board again!

Bethany Beach, Delaware, United States
The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.
I have been fishing the waters off the Delaware coast my whole life. I grew up behind the wheel of my family's boat searching for flounder in the back bays. As I grew up I expanded my fishing horizons offshore to master the tuna, mahi, along with other fish we have in our waters. My passion is to see my groups catch the fish of their dreams, and I will work hard to achieve that dream.
