Fishing has been consistently good both inshore and offshore. Inshore we are targeting Striped Bass in a summer pattern, targeting these fish early and late in deeper water. Smaller fish are feeding on top as we have smaller bait start to flush out of river and estuaries. Bluefish are also being caught regularly, in more of surface feeding type situations. We are seeing increased presence of Atlantic Bonito, and some False Albacore. Again since we have so much bait on the bays, these fish tend to fill in this time of year which is essentially the beginning of our Fall Run. Still plenty of Black Seabass and Fluke to be had for the dinner plate. offshore: Bluefin tuna are the name of the game, recreational size bluefin fishing has been on fire. Targeting them on jigs and top water, some live bait. Giants are also in abundance, which is a fun way to spend a day. We have been targeting these fish on live bait and artificial lures. On both light tackle and heavy gear. An experience to say the least. Generally ranging from the 200-900lb class. Shark fishing is consistently productive as well, Mako, Brown, Dusky and Hammerhead sharks have been willing to play on light tackle.

Great trip overall! Captain Jack was knowledgeable, patient, flexible and we caught a bunch of fish. Noman's Land is a beautiful island worth seeing.

Tyler was awesome. We went out with three adults and two kids (6 & 8) and he got us on the fish! We caught a ton of massive striped bass and had a great time. Will definitely go out with him again.

Tyler was amazing! Timely, professional and friendly. This charter was a gift for my dad for Father's Day, and we had the best time making memories as a family. All five of us each caught something, we would highly recommend and we plan to book again with Tyler in the future!
