JP Charters
If fishing in Cape May is on your bucket list, look no further than JP Charters. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Jonathan knows them forwards and back.
Mahi Mahi, Bluefish, Striped Bass, Black Drum, Flounder, Black Seabass, Sheepshead, Tautog, and more are in the cards, depending on when you go. On these trips, it's common to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.
Thinking of bringing the whole family? Kids are absolutely welcome! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. And, you can't go wrong with snacks so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty stomach!
You'll be casting lines from a 32' SeaVee center console with space for 6 passengers. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water.
You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
There's no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Have in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.
Don't leave home without sunblock (non-spray), bottled water, and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Today we booked our 2nd trip with JP Charters, and were not disappointed! We started with trolling and caught dozens of Bluefish. At times it felt like we could barely reel them in before we hooked another. Then we tried bottom-fishing, and caught a few sea bass and fluke. One was big enough for our dinner tonight! Great trip overall, highly recommend!
Omg! I booked captain john for my son’s birthday! 5 twelve year old boys! Capt. gave the option to catch sharks and fish and I’ll let you guess which one they chose! We caught 8 sharks total! The experience was the best from beginning to end! Capt. was down to earth and totally chill! Thank you so much for creating core memories for my son and friends! They now want to make this a yearly tradition!
We booked a trip with Capt. Jonathan for sea bass for my 11 year olds first ocean fishing trip. The water was rough to go out for them so he suggested to go out for black drum. My nephew caught his first fish and it was a sizeable one. Jonathans a great guide that makes the trip enjoyable and Id highly recommend going with him. We are already planning our next trip to go out again!
JP was great, he was patient with our questions, very personable and he moved the boat several times to find the best fishing spots. We would definitely highly recommend booking with him !
Captain Jon was amazing. Got to the dock and he gave us the rundown on the weather and conditions. Shifted to fishing bayside and hooked with 10 sharks! one heck of a morning for iffy weather.
