Wow! Jesse is the best and most entertaining captain we have had yet and I am an avid angler as well as my family. We have chartered many times but this one was our favorite trip ever. Captain Jesse Stubbs was extremely fun to fish with and kept the whole family involved and with big smiles on at all times! We were on the fish from the moment we dropped a line in the water, and the captain was great at adapting to the conditions and knowing what we should do next. My daughter literally said I think my wrist is gonna fall off because she fought so many fish! From beautiful Flounder to Bull Redfish we did it all. The captain never made us feel rushed or pressured and was very helpful throughout the entire trip. I have been fishing for 35 years and I truly enjoyed this particular trip more than any I have been on! Thank you Captain and we will be back!

Our family of four (two kids 5&6 years old) had a great time! Caught plenty of fish (flounder and snapper-even caught a huge redfish that we have back to the ocean) Captain was great with the kids and kept us baited the entire time so we could maximize our adventure. Captain Jesse cleaned the fish we kept and We took the founder and snapper to a local spot (Salty Pelican) where they cooked it to order and made the end of our day even better! I would go again with this option/captain!

Jesse was great to work with. He communicated with us prior to and after the trip to make sure we were informed and satisfied. We fished the jetties and started a little slow, but we kept moving around until we found some good fishing holes. We caught many fish species and had some flounder, pompano, black drum and whiting as keepers. I have already recommended this charter to a friend and will continue to spread the word about Ameila Light Tackle Charters.

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.
