    stop searching book with JP

    3 Hour Trip - 1:00 PM on February 6, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 child

    We had the BEST fishing trip today with Captain JP! He was absolutely excellent, so patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making sure we caught fish. My son is five, and Captain JP was incredible with him. He made the experience fun, exciting, and easy to understand, which meant everything to us. We caught a huge bass and released her because she was pregnant, which was such a cool learning moment for my son. Captain JP really knows the water and went above and beyond, he even kept us out longer than scheduled just to make sure we had an amazing experience. We had such a great time and are 100% rebooking with him. Highly, highly recommend!

    Fantastic Trip!

    Half Day Trip on December 23, 2025 • 2 adults

    JP, our guide, was phenomenal. He kept us updated a week prior and responded to all of my questions immediately. We caught so many amazing fish. He even kept us out longer than our scheduled time. We caught a variety of species of fish. Gigantic large mouth bass and Peacock bass. If you come to Del Ray and want a day of great fishing, JP is the man you want. I will be using him every time I come to Florida moving forward. Can’t wait for my next trip with him.

    JP is the best!

    2 Hour Trip on December 24, 2025 • 3 adults • 1 child

    We loved our time with JP. Not only was his guiding and equipment great, but his stories and hospitable personality made for a great trip for our family of 3 generations of fishermen. He was especially good with our 4 year old. All my nephew can talk about now is fishing with JP and when are we going back out on JPs boat.
