    exceeded all hopes and expectstions!!

    3 Hour Inshore (AM) on July 30, 2026 • 5 adults • 2 children

    My boys are 8 and 11 and have been fishing local lakes and streams for several years but had never done a fishing charter before. This was an experience they will never forget. Jake couldnt have been more kind and patient and did an amazing job. We all had an absolute blast! We left with smiles on our faces and enough fish for our next several family meals!

    great day fishing

    4 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM) on August 20, 2026 • 4 adults

    We went on a 4 hr inshore trip. captain Jake is awesome and has a great sense of humor. He kept changing spots to get us on the fish. I would definitely recommend this charter. Down side for ladies there is no bathroom on the boat but doable for a 4 hr trip.

    Captain Jake is Awesome

    4 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM) on July 27, 2025 • 5 adults • 3 children

    Can’t thank captain Jake enough for his hard work and dedication to the kids and making sure they had a great time. We had 3 11 year olds and a 14 year old. He was great and we had an amazing time. Got 8 Fluke keepers and at a lot of it that night. Awesome trip! Thanks.

Captain Jake is the man
4 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM) on June 23, 2026 • 4 adults

Our group had an awesome time out with Captain Jake. We went out literally to fish by the rocks which could only be described as intense fun as we were battling the bass. Captain Jake expertly guided the boat around the rocks and set us up to catch some huge fish before traveling to calmer waters for some relaxing fluke/flounder fishing. He knew all the right spots, got everyone set up, and joined us for what was just an awesome time out on the water. After getting us back in just before the rain hit, he cleaned up our catch and sent us home with some prime cuts. All in all it was a fantastic day for a couple of old guys and a dude in his mid 30s. Doesn't matter if you're new to this or true to this - Captain Jake has you covered. So if you're in need for a good time out on the water look no further. Thank you again, Captain!
