I caught my first striped bass when I was 5 and started working on my Dad's charter boat when I was 6. Here we are at 52 and I still absolutely love being on the water and sharing my passion for fishing with my customers.

    Monsters of the Midwest

    4 HOUR INSHORE CHARTER • 4 adults • 1 child

    What an incredible experience for our family! We have two teenage boys who love to fish (as do my husband and I), and this trip exceeded all of our expectations. Captain Jason was fantastic—he kept us on the fish all day by constantly moving to the best spots. He was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and always right there to help us land some absolute monsters. His energy was contagious, and he was cheering us on with every catch, making the experience even more fun. If you’re looking to catch real fish with an experienced, hardworking captain who truly wants everyone on board to have a great time, this is the trip to book. We couldn’t recommend Captain Jason more highly!

    Great striper introduction

    6 HOUR INSHORE CHARTER • 3 adults

    This was the first striper guided trip that I have been on. I was accompanied by my wife and brother on captain Jason’s boat. We all caught fish and had a blast! My wife is still learning how to cast, but captain Jason made sure to put her in a position to catch fish. Jason was extremely helpful and he worked hard to put us on a plethora of stripers. Fantastic experience all around! I’m hoping to be back either next summer or the following summer. Either way, we will be booking with this guide again and I strongly recommend this business to anyone looking for a guide on Cape Cod. I could not have asked for a better experience.

    Reported catch:
    Striped Bass

    Great Fishing Experience for the Whole Family

    4 HOUR INSHORE CHARTER • 4 adults • 1 child

    We had a fantastic fishing trip! The captain was extremely helpful and had a great approach with the kids, patiently explaining everything to them and making sure they were having a good time. Even when the fish weren’t biting in one spot, he quickly found another place where we had plenty of action. It was a great experience for the whole family. We definitely recommend it!

    Great Father Son Fishing

    4 HOUR INSHORE CHARTER • 2 adults • 1 child

    Captain Jason repeatedly got us on fish. We each got a stripped bass and blue fish. We were chasing down bonito’s hooked one up but it jumped the hook after a couple of runs. Overall a great trip and lots of memories!

    Captain Jason took us to some beautiful spots and we caught some black sea bass and flounder. Our 12 and 9 year old boys loved it. Everyone caught more than one fish!

    Great day with Jason. I caught bonito, fluke, and black bass for the first time. Jason really worked hard to find the fish despite tough conditions.

Chatham reverts to a sleepy fishing town in November, and you won't find much action. You can still enjoy the area's stunning natural beauty if you pack your hat and gloves, though.
