captain Jed

Half Day Offshore5 adults

Captain Jed was easy to communicate with while booking the trip through the app. He answered quickly when we had any questions. He gave us an easy location to find him and load for the trip. His boat is clean and he was well prepared for the day with equipment and bait. His sarcastic sense of humor is either for you or it isn’t as it is hard to tell if he’s being serious or not. He didn’t provide much instruction once we got out on the water leaving us unsure of where he wanted us on the boat or the expectations of how we’re going to be fishing for the day. He set all the poles for us and we waited to reel them in. If you’re expecting a cast and reel experience, you might want instruction tell him that or maybe he just prefers this method?!

If you want to cast a rod it’s best not to tell the captain that you’re probably going to drop the rod in the water.

    Fantastic trip.

    Half Day Offshore - 1:05 PM • 2 adults

    my son and I went fishing, and had an amazing time. Highly skilled captain who loves fishing and knows his local waters. We had high winds but he was able to get us off shore where we landed a large King fish. He then rolled out the Kite and we locked on to a gorgeous sail fish. It fought for over 30 minutes, and when we brought it alongside the bost we took some pictures of it and realesed it. It was a gorgeous color and deserves to be live and free in the ocean. Overall an amazing trip, we’re definitely coming back. Thank you captain.

    August fishing trip

    Half Day Offshore • 3 adults

    The weather and water were perfect this morning. The captain was good and had exceptional gear. My son caught a large shark and my wife had a good time. It was there first time to go out on saltwater. Hope to come back next year for a full day out on the water with this charter. I would recommend this charter because the captain let us participate in the whole fishing trip and not just sit and reel the fish in.

    Beautiful Day - Great Fishing

    Half Day Offshore • 2 adults

    We had a great day fishing with Captain Jed. Kept busy catching snapper, yellow tail, mutton, and my first sail fish. Captain Jed made sure we always had lines in the water and ready to go. Great day wiry my son. I recommend Captian Jed to new and experienced fishers looking for a knowledgeable, hard working captain.

    Do IT!!

    5 Hour Offshore • 2 adults

    Great trip. Great communication and effort. You can not catch fish without a line in the water. Mr. Parker had MANY well presented lines in the water. He also kept his bait fresh. He has the know how and puts in the correct productive effort. You will catch more with him than others.

    Epic trip! Jed was fantastic. We hit the grand slam—landing a tarpon, a jack, and a monster snook. It was an unforgettable day on the water. If you’re looking for an incredible fishing experience, I highly recommend booking a trip with Captain Jed!
