I couldn’t be happier with our family fishing experience. Captain John and first mate Jeff were so patient with our kids, skilled fisherman, and completely entertaining. We caught a variety of fish. Enough of the Haddock were large enough that we had a DELICIOUS meal with them back at our rental apartment (my son cooked the rest for breakfast the next morning). The boat was great too. Covered seating areas and a bathroom. I’ve been on crowded charter boats before and this was not... More

We had an all around wonderful experience with the charter; this includes booking it, communication with John along the way, and the fishing. We went out fishing in open water first and enjoyed catching Hollock and Cusk, and then went along the shore for striped bass (and threw in some local history). They even mongered and bagged the fish for us to take home. The boat had plent of room as well. John had a lot of knowledge over the years to know where to fish but also utilized his radio... More

We went out with Captain John and his first Mate Jeff. They working their tails off the entire trip to ensure we had a safe, fun and productive fishing trip. Would absolutely recommend them for anyone looking to fish the Gloucester/Cape Ann area for whatever sort of fish they seek to catch. Will definitely go out with them again in the future.

We’ve fished all over on a variety of boats, using various fishing methods, with a variety captains and crews. Capt John had our safety as his top priority watching weather paterns and calling 4 days prior to departure then checking in daily up to our scheduled trip, as he had some concerns. We ended up being able to go out, and catch some fish! Jeff was personable and kept our lines baited. He and Capt John kept the boat tidy with everything in its place. Althoug the water... More

We had a beautiful morning out on the waters of Gloucester. Captain John was extremely knowledgeable of the fishing waters from all of his experiences. We fished the bay then headed out further to catch live mackerel and use them to catch striped bass. Fished multiple areas and enjoyed catching fish on light tackle. The early morning fog lifted and the scenery was magical. First mate Jeff was also very friendly and helpful. We were having so much fun the Captain even extended our trip by... More

Bad weather in the morning canceled our tuna trip, luckily Cap. John called an audible and we transitioned to inshore in the afternoon. We were gifted 2 giant striped bass, both over 50”, and had a great time. Thanks for a great trip!
