About Your Trip

If you are adventurous, this is the trip you have been waiting for! Montauk, located at the very tip of the South Fork peninsula of Long Island, is New York's largest commercial fishing harbor! It is known for being the home port for some of the best sport fishing on the east coast. Are you looking for some premier fishing, stunning views, and exciting adventures? You won’t regret fishing in Montauk with the immaculate service that Captain Jim provides.


​​Overnight canyon trips are the ultimate fishing experience. Traveling offshore to "The Canyons", located approximately 70 miles from Montauk Point, Captain Jim targets a variety of big game fish, including Blue Marlin, Bigeye Tuna, Wahoo, and more! On this trip, Captain Jim trolls during the daylight hours and then switches over to chunking with bait at night. Targeted species include Yellowfin Tuna, Bigeye Tuna, Albacore, Mahi, Swordfish, Wahoo, Blue Marlin, and more. This trip tends to typically fall around 28 to 30 hours.

You'll step aboard Captain Jim’s gorgeous 32’ Topaz sportfisher, powered by twin Caterpillar engines pushing 640 HP. Topaz 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 electronics you could want, including a color 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!

Once you book your excursion, Captain Jim will meet you to get you started on your exciting trip. Full and half-day excursions are available and are inclusive of gas. All you need to bring is a Montauk saltwater fishing license and your own food, drinks, a hat, sunscreen, and polarized sunglasses. Jim will take care of the rest!

Independent Guide
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!!
