These waters are known for Flounder, Spanish Mackerel, Spotted Seatrout, Redfish, Black Drum, Sheepshead, Weakfish, and more. On the day of your trip, you're likely to troll and bottom fish using light tackle, and you're welcome to keep any fish you catch, assuming they're legal to keep. The crew can even clean your catch for you. Now that's dinner!

Hop aboard our custom 24' Pontoon that holds up to 6 passengers and has everything you need for a productive day on the water. Rods, reels, and tackle are covered by the charter, along with lures. Kids are welcome, so feel free to make it a family adventure.

There's no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain. Don't leave home without sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), snacks, and drinks.

Had a BLAST!
4 Hour Trip on July 29, 20263 adults1 child

We have been on several fishing charters over the years. We went out July 29th at 8am for a 4-hour charter on the pontoon boat. Weather was perfect & fish were biting! We were on the fish within 10 minutes. We brought 19 fish onto the boat and took several home with us for dinner. Captain Jack is a great guy! He's been fishing these waters for 50 years so he knows what he's doing. We caught Flounder, Rock Bass, Ribbon fish, Oyster Toadfish, and Needle Fish. Captain Jack cleaned the fish for us on site afterwards. Highly recommend!

Perfect trip for young fishermen
3 Hour on July 31, 20263 adults2 children

I booked this trip because it was only 3 hours long and I figured that would be a good length of time since I ws bringing my young son with me. He loved it! He caught 7 or 8 fish himself. The rest of us caught a couple flounder apiece, and when we weren't catching fish we were enjoying a nice breeze and the pretty scenery. Captain Jack had plenty of stories to keep us entertained too. We'll be back for sure

4 Hour Trip on May 7, 20264 adults

We fished with Capt Jack today aboard the Black Diamond Charters pontoon. The boat and Captain are great, his knowledge of fishing this area is incredible and the conversations were great. Catching some Flounders along the way was a bonus along with a blue, skate and small shark. I was impressed with his custom rods and how well they handled the fish. If you want a nice back bay fishing experience i suggest you book one on Black Diamond. Thanks Capt Jack it was great seeing you again! Looking forward to another trip.

First fish!
3 Hour on March 31, 20264 adults

Captain Jack was friendly, knowledgeable, and took care of everything- as much, or as little help as you wanted/needed. He told great stories and our boys (age 17&+13) had a blast. Our 13 year old caught his first fish... a SHARK! He was on cloud nine for the rest of our trip. Highly recommend 👌
