Captain Mac

Member since June 2018 Cape May, United States

Background: Captain Joseph McNamee is the owner and operator of the company. He has been running party boats and charters from Cape may to Brigantine since 1980. Over the years, he has located various fishing grounds up and down the coast and acquired a wealth of knowledge. Joseph enjoys being out on the water and sharing his passion with his clients and friends. Joe was introduced to the art of fishing at the age of 7 when his father took him catching fish for the first time. He was hooked!
Techniques: I don't have any set style. I like to try different things on different days.

Flounder and Sea Bass

Jun 30, 2025 Cape May

We had a good pick of small sea basd and a few keeper sea bass that were returned to catch another day. Went to back bay for a couple flounder but only one keeper. We tried to catch a striped bass for a young man, but they didn't bite.

4 Hour Trip (AM)

What a great experience for our whole family (mom, dad and two girls 15 & 12). Joe and Joe were so great. So much fun. And even though two of us were sick (listen to what Joe tells you. Take the Dramamine!) we had a great time. And we are about to have our catch for supper!!!

The captain and his mate were so incredibly accommodating! Back bay then inlet and then about 3-4 miles offshore to help get the kids acclimated to ocean fishing!! Everyone was super nice and we caught about 25 fish for the boat total

Captain Joe and his crew were amazing . Very accommodating and knowledgeable. We hit our sea bass within an hour and than ventured off into the bay to catch some fluke . One of the best fishing trips me and my son have ever been on.

Joe shared all the best. It was great charter fishing because he shared his boat, his gear, his knowledge, his sea legs, and most importantly his place to catch lots of sea bass. We had a blast!

I went with my father-in-law and brother-in-law and we caught 20 plus fish a piece and they said it was a “slow” day. We had a ton of fun and didn’t mind catching that many fish on a so called “slow” day.
