We had a blast with Captain Jonathon! This was a trip for myself, my dad and my son and I was specifically searching for someone who was ‘kid friendly’ and Jon delivered. He was incredibly patient with all of us, especially my son. We made a lifetime memory yesterday and it’s something the three of us won’t forget. It was our first time even catching a Sheepshead, and we caught the boat limit, which was 10 fish per person (40). I even got myself my first saltwater citation with a monster 11lb 4oz!! In the words of my son, “if we could give you a million stars, we would definitely do that!”

Thanks again for the great day, Cap!

Capt. Jonathon went above and beyond expectations! Down to Earth person with knowledge of the fishing grounds we were at, couldn’t ask for much more than that! Got us on fish pretty quick and we had an absolute blast! Highly recommend to anyone! Thank you for giving us a great experience!

We had a great experience with captain Jonathan on our 2 hour trip. He was very friendly and knowledgeable of the area and the fish. He was fantastic with my 10 year old son. Jonathan was accommodating with time and our fishing preferences. We didn’t sit too long in one spot, we traveled to areas with lots of activity and moved on to other locations at good intervals. We are definitely going to book a longer trip on our next visit!

Easy to book this short fishing trip here on the app. Got a confirmation message from the captain quickly.  I can’t say exactly how I ended up booking JW Charters but I’m glad I did!

Jonathon was easy to communicate with, and responsive to messages and a last minute phone call. Our expectations were not super high for catching much since it was just a 2 hour cruise, and also just a couple of days after tropical storm Ophelia—we were going to be happy to be out on a boat on a beautiful day no matter what.

Having said that, my husband did get a couple of bites, even if they were too small to keep. And we did come home with a good size flounder (which we just ate for dinner back home in northern Virginia!). Jonathon was very knowledgeable about where the fish would be, the tides, etc. and he didn’t let us fish too long in areas that were not giving us any bites. We hit about 4 different locations, and had a great time.  When we docked, Jonathon deboned our flounder for us!

Would definitely go out with him again, but maybe for a 3 or 4 hour cruise instead.
