  Monsters of the Midwest

  4 HOUR INSHORE CHARTER on July 16, 2026 • 4 adults • 1 child

  What an incredible experience for our family! We have two teenage boys who love to fish (as do my husband and I), and this trip exceeded all of our expectations. Captain Jason was fantastic—he kept us on the fish all day by constantly moving to the best spots. He was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and always right there to help us land some absolute monsters. His energy was contagious, and he was cheering us on with every catch, making the experience even more fun. If you’re looking to catch real fish with an experienced, hardworking captain who truly wants everyone on board to have a great time, this is the trip to book. We couldn’t recommend Captain Jason more highly!

  Great striper introduction

  6 HOUR INSHORE CHARTER on June 22, 2026 • 3 adults

  This was the first striper guided trip that I have been on. I was accompanied by my wife and brother on captain Jason’s boat. We all caught fish and had a blast! My wife is still learning how to cast, but captain Jason made sure to put her in a position to catch fish. Jason was extremely helpful and he worked hard to put us on a plethora of stripers. Fantastic experience all around! I’m hoping to be back either next summer or the following summer. Either way, we will be booking with this guide again and I strongly recommend this business to anyone looking for a guide on Cape Cod. I could not have asked for a better experience.

  Great Fishing Experience for the Whole Family

  4 HOUR INSHORE CHARTER on August 14, 2026 • 4 adults • 1 child

  We had a fantastic fishing trip! The captain was extremely helpful and had a great approach with the kids, patiently explaining everything to them and making sure they were having a good time. Even when the fish weren’t biting in one spot, he quickly found another place where we had plenty of action. It was a great experience for the whole family. We definitely recommend it!

  Great Father Son Fishing

  4 HOUR INSHORE CHARTER on August 9, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

  Captain Jason repeatedly got us on fish. We each got a stripped bass and blue fish. We were chasing down bonito’s hooked one up but it jumped the hook after a couple of runs. Overall a great trip and lots of memories!
