Captain Jesse is a great guy. Our 4 and 9 year old were on their first fishing trip from a boat. Jesse took the time to teach the boys different ways to cast, share fishing knowledge, and make the entire experience special and memorable. Our 9 year old declared fishing with Jesse “the best fishing experience ever”. It isn’t easy to balance Captain, fishing with grown ups and young children, Jesse mastered it like a pro. Thanks to him we reeled in great fish and a great time. We will definitely be back and recommending him to others.

Jesse was so knowledgeable about the history of the area, loved learning at the same time as fishing. Made time for my dad and son as was their first time fishing in waters like this. He was in very helpful had many jokes, the conversation was easy and it was like fishing with family.  We were never discouraged when fish weren’t biting, just kept moving to new spots.  Jesse knew all the spots and how to fish them and when we got to this one spot we were gankin them.  We caught many species and we’re able to get some to cook that night.  I would highly recommend this charter as I know I’ll be fishing with him again. More than a captain ot was like fishing with a friend.

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!

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.
