Amazing trip and will return
4 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing (AM) on August 12, 20255 adults
We had a great time. Nearly had a full load of people (can have up to six, we had five) and we all caught fish the entire time. Capt knew where to take us to make sure we got our moneys worth. We did the four hour bottom fishing trip and came home with enough for dinner for a week. Capt and first mate are great to chat with, made us feel comfortable and helped us out the entire time. Six stars of if I could. We will definitely be returning and hope to get out on the bay. Thanks again!

Great morning on the water in Solomon's
5 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing (AM) on July 9, 20252 adults2 children
We had a great 5 hour trip with Capt Thomas and first mate Jimmy! Bottom fishing was hot and our family caught a ton (30-40) of spot and croaker. Capt knew all the hot spots on the river. We then made it to a few spots to try for rockfish. Both our sons reeled in big dogs and we lost a few but that’s fishing! Thanks for a memorable day in Solomon’s island and a delicious freshly caught lunch!!

5 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing (AM) on July 1, 20256 adults
While in the area we looked book a fishing trip. After going through several on-line sites came across Lochjaw Capt. and Jimmy but us on fish early and often. We selected the 5 hr bottom fishing trip, we caught plenty of Spot for a family fish fry that evening. Both Capt and Jimmy were great at helping when it was needed and letting us take care of ourselves when we could.

3 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing (AM) on July 20, 20252 adults
My son and I learned a lot fishing tricks including a tool to de hook fish from the hook and how to clean the fish so they are ready to eat. I will take this knowledge and share it with my son on future adventures on our own and when we come back to see this captain. He also let us borrow some tools so we could practice cleaning the fish. Great day!

4 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing (PM) on June 3, 20254 adults
The Captain and crew were very professional and friendly. The Captain was very accommodating with moving the boat around so that we could catch fish. He also had us on fish approximately 20 minutes after we left the dock and let us fish until the allotted time booked, which I hadn’t experienced with other Captains. KUDOS TO CAPTAIN WEEMS AND HIS CREW!!!!
