This being my first experience with a charter, I was a bit nervous about the process - the equipment, captain, locations, weather, and most of all, hoping we would catch some fish! This outing was a part of my son’s 10th birthday trip, and we both couldn’t have been more pleased. Jesse was so knowledgeable, engaging, and patient as my son asked him every question under the sun. Despite some crazy windy conditions, Captain Jesse put us in some great spots and got some great action. Couldn’t recommend more!

What a great time we had with Captain Jesse.  Not only did we fish several areas and caught a variety of fish but got a great history lesson of the Fernandina area. Jesse was a great help with all the baiting and reeling in the fish. Especially for this 70 year old woman! Jesse was very attentive to my 14 year old grandson, helping his bait his hook, showing him how to cast and how to reel them in.  My two sons enjoyed the day and caught several just under 1/4”  legal fish. A disappointment but was worth all the little white fish they caught. It was truly a wonderful experience to spend the day with “my boys” and hopefully a memorable one as well. Book with Captain Jesse and you won’t be disappointed.

Weather didn’t cooperate all that well for us but that’s how fishing goes. The tides were also extremely aggressive! Jesse definitely loves what he does! He’s very knowledgeable and his stories are as advertised. The bite was a little slow but he worked very hard to keep finding them. It’s very clear that this is not a job to Jesse, he genuinely loves being out there. We ended up chasing after some Whiting so we could have a decent amount to clean and take home. He was excellent with my 9 year old son and has tons of patience. Also he was not at all concerned about what time we got back. Great experience for the price!

You are in the right place! If you have any concerns about going on a charter forget them and book it with Jesse today. He is patient with inexperienced fishermen or will allow you to do as much as you want based on your skills.
Jesse will keep looking till you find the fish. We caught many different species of fish and Jesse even cleaned them for us. The 26 i ch red drum was the best fish i have ever eaten. Jesse even recommended a local restaurant that cooked it fir us. You will definitely be entertained as he shares the history of this beautiful part of Old Florida. If you are as lucky as we were, you will feel like you made a friend as well. Thanks Jesse for making memories for the wife and me that we will never forget! We will be back!

Awesome day on the water with Jesse Stubbs of Amelia Light Tackle Angling.  Ben, Bradyn and I all caught 4 fish slams with redfish, flounder, speckled trout and black drum.  Ben caught a blue crab and Bradyn caught a fish we couldn’t identify.
It was an awesome experience with Jesse as we caught 25-30 fish on a day that other fishermen blanked.  Jesse showed his advanced knowledge of the area and showed us several techniques new to us.  I have known many guides from all over the US and Jesse is by far best I have seen in action.
