  A day to remember for ages

  5 Hour Trip (AM) on May 25, 2024 • 3 adults • 1 child

  My 8 year old son and I went for a half day trip in the morning and it was just stunning. Captain Jim and his wife Caroline made it a hack of an experience for my son and also myself. My son caught multiple fish under guidance of the two and pulled stripe bass on board himself. Even through the barrier of English language for my son from Germany he felt so comfortable and warm onboard that he doesn’t stop talking about this fishing trip Best regards Gunnar and Elias

  Thank you again Gunnar. It was a great day and your son will have lasting memories of his day fishing with his father off Montauk Point. Hopefully we will see you again! Enjoy your family vacation here in the USA. Sincerely, Capt. Jim & Carolyn

  Full day tuna trip with tailwrapped and James McSwigin

  14 HOUR TUNA TRIP on September 3, 2022 • 4 adults • 2 children

  Fantastic day with my kids. They have been asking about going tuna fishing out of New York for nearly a decade based on stories I have told them from my years growing up I. The area. Being in Georgia makes the trip difficult to time and coordinate based o. Their busy schedule at home. This year, stars aligned and I was finally able to fill my promise. My sons had a fantastic time and are already asking about next year. Captain James and Mike have helped me to establish what I hope will be many years of tradition with my sons, well into their adult years. They showed my sons a great time and we came home with a large amount of tuna and great memories of the best father son weekend I have had with my children. I highly recommend captain James to anyone considering a trip with him. He and his crew are knowledgeable, hard working and great guides. Thanks to them for making this the best time I could have hoped for with my sons!

  Amazing half day trip with Captain Jim

  5 HOUR TRIP (PM) on August 11, 2022 • 3 adults

  We had the most amazing fishing experience with captain Jim and his mate Mark. The boat was clean, spacious, and fully equipped, and both Jim and Mark were so knowledgeable and eager to help us reel in the biggest catch. We began by trawling for striped bass and caught at least half a dozen huge striped bass that were more than 50 lb each! It was an unforgettable experience. We then went fishing for fluke and sea bass and that was equally fruitful. This was one of our best fishing charter experiences and we can’t recommend it enough for anyone looking for a fun day out at sea!

  It was a pleasure having you aboard Helen, you did a spectacular job reeling in those bass! I know your Dad and brothers arms were pretty tired after reeling in so many TROPHY SIZE striped bass! It was a great day on the water & we look forward to seeing you again. Thank you for booking with Tailwrapped Sportfishing charters. Sincerely, Capt. Jim & crew

  Great Day With The Tailwrapped Charter

  5 Hour Trip (AM) on August 10, 2023 • 5 adults • 1 child

  Fishing with Jim McSwigin and his mate Brian was a blast! There were five of us who were older males, a female, and young child. We all had a great experience with Jim McSwigin and would recommend the trip to the experienced and inexperienced angler. Thank you, Jim, for a great day we have already marked our Calendar for July 2024. Do yourself a favor and book a trip with Jim McSwigin I promise you will not be disappointed.
