Captain TJ Ritner has spent his life fishing all sorts of different waters. Florida Keys, Cabo San Lucas, and the northeast Atlantic are areas he has fished extensively. With over 30 years of experience fishing radically different waters, there's nothing that can surprise him. He's also a local to the area, so he knows all the best secret fishing spots around. His motto is that luck has nothing to do with success, but countless hours spent fishing have honed his skills to a razor edge and now they're at your disposal.

    True Pofessionals Fun Fun Fun

    Half Day Trip – Inshore - 1:00 PM9 adults4 children

    Our family had an incredible day on the water with Captain TJ and first mate Logan. From the moment we started fishing, they had us on the bite and kept the action going all day. We caught over 60 fish and brought home 20, which made for an absolutely fabulous family dinner. Captain TJ’s knowledge of the local waters and Logan’s hard work, encouragement, and attention to everyone on board made the trip enjoyable for anglers of all ages and experience levels. They were friendly, professional, and genuinely committed to making sure we had a memorable day. If you’re looking for a fun, productive fishing charter with a great crew, we highly recommend Captain TJ and Logan. We can’t wait to fish with them again!

    TJ and his crew member Logan were excellent. Very relaxed day with lots of fish caught. We moved to better spots whenever fish weren’t being caught and we had a very successful day! Would definitely go with them again!

    Monster fluke!

    8 Hour Trip – Montauk Jumbo Fluke6 adults

    Had a great full-day, 8 man charter aboard Crunch Time! Captain TJ is a pro and constantly put us on top a fish. Logan, the mate, was on his game as well- netting fish, cutting bait, cleaning fish, and making sure everyone had their lines in the water as much ad possible. The boat is built for fishing, with plenty of room to spread out. Will definitely book a future trip.

    my family had the best day!

    Half Day Trip – Inshore - 1:00 PM5 adults3 children

    Captain Tj and his mate Logan hosted a fantastic day on the water for us. They included my three younger children safely in all aspects of the day and Caps knowledge of all the hot spots made for an exciting, active day of fishing. Would highly recommend “Crunch time” charters and will definitely be back for another fun trip - Thank you for having us!
