UnReel Sportfishing
Make some memories in Cape May and go fishing with UnReel Sportfishing.
Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Bonito, Spanish Mackerel, Bluefish, and plenty more. Depending on the species you’re after, you may find yourself trolling or maybe something more specialized in this area. Fish caught during the trip are yours to take home, so long as they’re within the legal limit. The crew can even clean your catch for you. Have a cooler ready in the car or you can bring a cooler with your own food and drinks.
Your boat for the day is a 34’ Downeast that holds up to 6 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures.
Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.
Families who love fishing together will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! If you don’t have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there’s one on board. Don’t leave home without snacks, drinks, sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor and glass bottles.
Now, time to hit the water with UnReel Sportfishing!

Half Day Shark (AM)
Hammered the sharks!
3 dads and 3 kids. First spot was slow and we moved. Ended up with 10 sharks in 2 hrs plus a few that got off close to the boat. Capt John was great. Patient with the kids and taught them how to reel the big boys in.

Exceeded All Expectations
Captain John was exceptional and did an amazing job of putting us on sharks. Big Sharks. He contacted me the day before our trip to move up the departure time to have the best sea conditions and we landed 10 amazing sharks and the 6 of us had an absolute blast. It was challenging to reel in that 9 foot shark but John was patient and gave great instructions. Plus he helps you get that great pic of you with your shark before he releases it. We will 100% book again with Unreel Sportfishing!!

Half day with Captain John
Excellent day out and fun for my sons. Great boat and gear. John knew where to go and also how target the three different species. We had a great action packed session with nearly fifty fish across Spanish mackerel, Bonito and Blue fish. The boys loved it. Thank you John and unreel fishing
