Avalon
8 hr near shore fishing Avalon
+6
Choose an 8 hr near shore trip. We stay within 30 miles of shore. We keep our plans dynamic to adapt to conditions. On summer days we might find some structure that is holding mahi. We might see a bird play marking tuna or bluefish. 8 hours is enough time to target some larger species. I’m trained to bend the rods and versatile enough to develop a game plan based on current conditions.

Good Trip
4/5
Captain Mac and first mate Joseph were more than accommodating. We caught some black sea bass and a ton of blues. Had a Spanish mackerel on first trolling run but he got off. Good experience. Just wish we could have landed more black sea bass. Overall a great experience and the captain knows where to go and what they are doing! I will be back and hopefully we get a big one 😎

Great afternoon with Captain Joe and Nick
5/5
Our first ocean fishing outing didn't disappoint! Came back with our limit of Bluefish (5/man) and 1 Spanish Mackerel. The crew was friendly and engaging and we had a blast on the Tara Anne, which handled the ocean waves easily. It was about 45 minutes out and 12 Miles to where the fish were, but once we found them we started hauling them in. First Mate Nick cleaned the Bluefish right at the back of the boat as we made our way back in to shore. The Bluefish tacos we made that night were a hit!

We had a great day on the water with Capt. Steve and Jerry. We had non-stop action all morning with snapper blues and Spanish Mackerel and kept Jerry pretty busy. Just a super trip for my son and I.

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
