Half Day Drift Fishing Trip AM • 2 adultsCaptain Jim takes the time to understand your expectations of the trip and then just delivers a great time. We told him we were interested in catching our dinner, but that more than anything we wanted to hook some fish and he made sure we did both! He has back up plans for his back up plans, making the charter tailored to the needs of his clients. Right off the bat both my BF and I were pulling in 18 pound fish - not eating fish but one box checked right away. I get terribly seasick but made it a full hour before needing to get to smoother seas, captain Jim had a number of options for every situation and we were so appreciative of his ability to quickly accommodate us at every turn. He is very knowledgeable about the ocean, fishing and the surrounding area, and if you are interested shares his knowledge, including all the fish tales you could ask for (with pictures to prove it). We felt like we were talking with an old friend and just had a ridiculously great time. The charter ended with us taking home well cleaned and prepared Mahi Mahi which we chose to cook ourselves (although he also has many options of places that will prepare it for you if you just prefer it on a plate. I could not recommend 4Js and captain Jim more, do yourself a favor and book today. Then talk with him about your trip so you get exactly what you want - he delivers!
Reported catch:Response from CaptainThank you for a Great review! You guys were fun and Awesome. Glad I was able to send you home with some fresh fish and mahi at that! Look forward to future charters with you two. Captain Jim
Saulis Banionis5.0VerifiedTough day but Captain Jimmy didn’t quit
3/4 Day Trolling Trip • 4 adultsIt was a tough day with the fish not biting, possibly due to a weather front moving in the next day, but Captain Jimmy wouldn’t give up. We went to a bunch of his known spots and tried multiple fishing techniques and we were able to catch five different species of fish with three keepers and great eating. Captain Jimmy is a good guy that will pull out all the stops to make sure you have a great catch, even if the fish don’t want to cooperate. Had a great day on the ocean with family and friends and look forward to future fishing trips with Captain Jimmy.

Half Day Drift Fishing Trip AM • 3 adults • 1 childCaptain Jim was very attentive to our needs. He was knowledgeable and outgoing, making our trip amazing! He truly cares about his passengers. For my son’s 21st birthday, Captain Jim went above and beyond to make it special. I will definitely book with him again and highly recommend this charter!
Response from CaptainThank-you sooo much Maggie! It started out on 🔥🔥🔥 and than shutoff. Tried everything to get you back on fish, but unfortunately they had lock jaw. You guys were amazing and nice to see a mom do a great job with her kids! Glad I was able to send you home with some meat, Captain Jim.
Ryan Baker5.0VerifiedCaptain Jim is awesome!
4 Hour Jigging Trip (PM) - 2 Person • 2 adultsA good friend and I booked a 3 hour jigging charter with Captain Jim. Due to a booking error on my part, our availabilities didn’t match and we were headed out the day we could make our trip. Jim not only met us early, but put everything he had into putting us on fish. We trolled with planer rods, top water, everything we could outside of jigging as the jigging had been slow. We landed a few Bonita, but not a trophy. That is not from lack of effort on the part of our captain. You will not be disappointed with a trip out with 4 J’s! I plan to keep an open line of communication with Jim as he’s just that awesome of a guy, truly passionate about what he does and it seems to be his enjoyment that his charters have a great time with him.
Response from CaptainRyan it was my pleasure! You guys were great and I’m glad 4 J’s Fishing Charters broke you skunk trip! 3 fish in the boat. Tough day, But we got you on the the board! Thanks again, Captain Jim
