About Your Trip

If you're ready to get some serious fishing done, Captain Jim doesn't mess around on these 14 hr Tuna trips! You'll be ripping it out 40 to 70 miles offshore targeting Bluefin and Yellowfin tuna, and don't be surprised if you encounter White Marlin, Mahi Mahi, and other pelagic species pelagic species along the way. This trip consists of mostly trolling by dropping the outriggers and putting out a spread of 9 to 11 rods. You will be using top-of-the-line gear, artificial lures, and hand-rigged bait. The average time of this trip is up to 14 hours and departure times will vary.

Step aboard Captain Jim’s gorgeous 32’ Topaz Sportfish powered by twin Caterpillar engines pushing 640 HP. Topaz Express boats are notorious for their comfy rides. Being safe on the water is the main priority of Captain Jim. His boat is equipped with an Acr Class 1 Eperb, First Aid Bag, Throw Ring, Lifejackets, and even a Switlik Solas A Life Raft. Not only does he have top-of-the-line safety features but he has all the Mac Daddy electronics such as a colored fish finder, 64-mile radar, chart plotter, spotlights, and one hell of a stereo. The cockpit and cabin were built completely custom with insulated fish boxes, pompanette seats, LED lighting, a teal dinette, a bathroom, and even A/C!

All you need to bring for the epic adventures is your own food, drinks, a hat, sunscreen, and polarized sunglasses. Jim will take care of the rest to ensure your trip of a lifetime!

Captain Jim and his wife Carolyn both share a common "love and passion" for fishing. They began fishing together over 20 years ago in Montauk, NY, While Captain Jim has been running a six-pack for the last decade, you would often find Carolyn fishing with other fishing friend, both accumulating the necessary knowledge to start their own operation. They have watched their dream come true over the past 5 years, as they now own and operate their own new charter boat.

Together, they bring over 35 years of local knowledge and experience, as they have been fishing all through the east end, inshore and offshore. Even on vacations, the couple will fish in Florida, the Bahamas, Puerto Rico, Costa Rica and anywhere they can find an ocean. They have entered tournaments, winning and placing, with bluefish, striped bass, and monster sharks. Captain Jim and Carolyn plan on making great memories on this new venture of theirs, and look forward to making you a part of them!!
