Six of us fished for bluefish with Captain John and his First Mate Ronnie. I didn’t think we’d catch anything in the heat of the afternoon, but boy howdy we couldn’t quit catching! We reached our limit and had a ball doing it, just like Captain John said we would. His spinners are magic, and he knows where the fish are. We also had dinner on board and it was spectacular - he beats any restaurant we could have gone to on shore. This was the best charter we have EVER taken, and we’ve all tried a bunch, all over the world. Great company, great gear, beautiful boat, and we plan to come back in the Fall. The only problem is that now we’ve all been spoiled rotten.

Our party of 6 scheduled a 6-hour trip with Captain John from 12 PM to 6 PM on the 4th of July. Capt. John and Phil provided great company and provided plenty of stories and humor to fill in the time between fish bites. We opted for the $25 crab cake lunch and it consisted of seasoned crab with no filler. We were all surprised at the quality since a similar crab cake would run you $40 in a typical seafood restaurant. Moreover, Capt. John’s navigation coupled with Phil’s fishing assistance resulted in us landing numerous fish, causing us to quickly hit our limit of 5 bluefish/person. At one point we lost 7 fish at once (due to our novice abilities in reeling them in) but there were so many bites that it didn’t even matter. Of course, Phil and Capt. John gave us advice after each misstep to guide us towards success. After docking, Capt. John cleaned, fileted, and packaged the fish for us, and they were delicious. We had a great day and we’re looking forward to coming back again!

Excellent trip. We highly recommend Captain John! He was great to talk to, very kind to my kids (aged 6-11), and worked hard to (successfully!) put us on some bluefish on a tricky day after a thunderstorm the night before. When it got hot around midday, we were happy to have the option to spend time in the air conditioned cabin in the boat.

And to anyone who goes out with Captain John, definitely add on the crabcake lunch! These were the best crabcakes we could remember eating in years, fried up on the boat.

Thanks Captain John!

The fishing trip was excellent. I highly recommended it. The boat and all of the fishing equipment was first class. Captain John and the first mat Ron were extremely professional and very witty. My Girlfriend Maggie won the award for best fisherman and Captain John gave her a very nice necklace. We will be back soon hopefully in August and in October for another fishing trip. We caught our limit of 17 large blue fish. Thank You Captain John and First Mate Ron
