Captain John runs a top notch charter. If you are looking for a chill and low key experience this is your guy. Even though the fishing was slow for all the charters today, John kept positive and put us on some fish. Fishing is fishing and sometimes the fish go to hide. Even so, John was gracious and personable throughout. He worked with his other charter operators and we found some fish to bring home. His boat is clean and plenty of room for six. If you are looking for a Cape May charter, this is the one you should book!

We had an absolutely incredible fishing trip with Captain Jonathan that our family will never forget! From the moment we arrived at the dock, everything was seamless. He was ready 10 minutes early, fully prepared with life jackets as we had requested, and greeted us with a warm, professional demeanor.

During the trip, we caught 25 bluefish, and thanks to Captain Jonathan’s expertise in trolling, the action was nonstop. Although the lines got tangled a few times — which is bound to happen with excited kids onboard — he handled every moment with calm, patience, and zero frustration. He made the whole experience fun and stress-free for everyone.

Captain Jonathan was especially kind and engaging with the kids. He let them put the fish in the basket, showed them how to ice the catch properly, and even taught them some fascinating facts about bluefish species. It was both educational and fun — a perfect family experience.

After the 4-hour trip, he didn’t rush us off. Instead, he cleaned the fish with great skill, helped us pack and ice them properly, and made sure we were completely taken care of before we left.

Captain Jonathan’s professionalism, knowledge, and kindness made this a five-star experience. If you’re looking for a family-friendly fishing adventure with a captain who goes above and beyond, look no further. We’ll definitely be booking with him again!

Great day of fishing for myself, my brother visiting from California, and our 4 boys. Captain Jon had us on the fish quickly, and the kids had a great time reeling in a couple dozen bluefish and assorted Spanish mackerel and false albacore.  We really appreciated his calm and patient demeanor with the kids, who all had an amazing time and learned a ton.  Highly recommend!

Had a great trip with JP Charters. His boat is immaculate, and his equipment works perfectly. Captain Jon is a great person to fish with, he knows the ocean and where to find fish! We caught lots of blues, tagged out on sea bass and even got to finish the trip off reeling in a nice big sand shark. Highly recommend JP Charters to anyone looking to go deep sea fishing! Hoping to come fish again soon!

We were looking for something to do other than get on a party boat or hidden boat. We found this charter and worked out an exciting 4 hr trip shark fishing. We ended up catching 13 shorts in that timeframe. Four hours was plenty long enough to keep the kids attention. Capt. John did a great job of putting us on the shark and given us a work out while catching them. Haha. Would highly recommend him.
