JM Charters
+1JM Charters is a light tackle fishing charter that operates in the seaside bays of Virginia.
From mid-March through May, we target Flounder and Black Drum in the Wachapreague and Quinby areas of the seaside bays and inlets. In the summer and fall, from June to October we move to Chincoteague, Va targeting Flounder, Croaker, Spot, and smaller Sharks.
In October-December, we start fishing the Chesapeake bay for Striped Bass, Red Drum, and Speckled Trout. In January and February we switch it up to freshwater fishing on the Pocomoke River for a mixed bag of Crappie, Yellow, Pickeral, and occasional Largemouth Bass.
If you have any additional questions, you can contact the Captain below directly. Join us for a great fishing adventure!
