    A great first experience for my granddaughter!

    3hrs • 2 adults

    We met Captain Jesse at the appointed time and he was ready go. We rode out to the first spot and were catching fish right away. Third cast brought a keeper Redfish to the boat. Caught another in short order plus other species. The entire trip was similar. Captain Jesse will put you on fish and he will tell you some good stories about the area while doing so. He hustled on board to keep hooks baited, hang ups cleared and us happy. Redfish, Black Drum, Black Sea Bass, Speckled Trout, along with some “trash” fish made for a fine trip!

    Great Trip - Fun

    4hrs • 2 adults

    This was a fun experience with Captain Jesse. He took us where we requested and we caught a variety of fish. Hw pulled in a very pretty black sea bass and a decent flounder though a touch under size limit. That was OK with us because we like to catch and release anyway. The rock bottom was a new experience for me and he helped me learn how to work the bait over the rocks. We were surprised to find out that we knew some of the same people from Fernandina Beach. We would go back fishing with Jesse anytime.

    Great trip!

    Captain Jesse is a cool guy and got us on fish. He told us about the history of the area and showed us some fishing tricks. Nice day on the water and we got into the reds🤘 We caught trout, jack crevalle, ladyfish and a catfish but the high light was two bull reds. He’s easy to fish with and it was relaxed and fun for us all.

    Crappy weather, still caught a variety of fish!

    3hrs • 4 adults • 2 children

    I was a little nervous about the weather and our fish catching abilities so last minute I changed from 2 hours to 3. The captain approved this right away which was great. This trip was PERFECT for myself and husband as we are already relatively experienced at fishing. Our son is 9 and he was able to fish completely independently and caught his own fish, too. Our daughter is 5 and pretty much just hunkered down on the floor of the boat because it was COLD that day. She could've participated but I wouldn't recommend bringing children younger than 5-6 unless it is over 70 degrees out. The captain was as helpful as possible and put us on the fish despite crappy weather (cold, windy).

    Great Charter

    4hrs • 2 adults

    Wound up at Fernandia for my annual birthday trip. We typically charter a trip on each trip and were totally pleased. Captain Jesse putnus on fish immediately whereb I caight my first ever speckled trout, nice five pounder. while searching in shore for more of Captain Jesse's "secret" spots, we wound up catching a bunch of speckles and a few black drum, many keepers. A high light was the vast knowledge of the local history of the island and surrounding area Captain Jesse imparted. We will definitely give Captain Jesse a vall for our next charter in Fernandina. what a great day!
