Very windy conditions and an 8 degree water temp drop over night made it a challenge to locate the fish early in the trip. After not getting anything on the line at the first few spots, and weather picking up in the Bay Captain Jake had us pick up one more time and move to another bayou that could protect us better from the wind. This move definitely saved the day. Started a little slow, but soon enough brought in the first Redfish of the day. Right behind it, mangrove snapper. Ended up staying in the bayou the rest of trip and taking home 2 Redfish and 5 mangrove snapper. Perfect for nice fish fry afterwards!
Overall a challenging day but you need those days to keep you humble. Captain Jake was kind enough to offer us the option of calling the trip early due to weather but glad we stuck it out, persevered, and bring home some fish. Jake was great with the kids, good conversation, and a pleasure to have as the Captain.

tjanl you for the kind words and great review!ย glad yall got that fish fry despite the almost 30 mph winds! hope to seecyall again on charterboat 2nd chance. be safe and blessed!
I was able to get my dad as well as my two sons together for a three generation fishing trip while we were all together for spring break. Captain Jake was amazingly patient with my boys (12, 10) when they were unfamiliar with the heavier fishing than they are used to. He was on time, ready, and while it was windy, did everything he could to get us on some fish. All four of us were able to catch fish and Captain Jake made sure the boys had a great time. We will definitely be using his talents and boat again!

thank you thank you! great reviews go along ways, so appreciated! Iโm glad everyone got to enjoy the trip! yall be blessed and happy memories were made!
Iโve fished with a lot of guides; Jake worked his tail off to make a fantastic trip for us. Caught fish, didnโt spend all morning boat riding. Great guy, this was my Son In law first saltwater trip. Jake made it a great trip!! Thank You VERY Much!!
Captain Jake went above and beyond to make sure we had a successful fishing trip. Even though we experienced some bad weather and storms, the captain took us to places to ensure we were able to catch some great fish such as redfish, black drum, and mangrove snapper. It was also refreshing to have a boat captain that did not use foul language; and that had a positive attitude. Whether you are a family with young kids, or just looking for a fishing trip with some buddies, please choose 2nd Chance. You wonโt regret it.
