Come try your hands at battling one of the most powerful fish in the salt water. Blacktips to hammerheads from 4 feet to over 10 feet. This is by far one of my favorite species of fish to target. Using live bait techniques the battle is as good as it gets. No need to go to the gym after a morning with these guys.

To Captain Jon, fishing is tied very closely with family. After losing his mother to a battle with cancer, he decided to start guiding fishing trips and dedicating a percentage of his earnings to cancer research. Beyond the financial aspect, he learned the importance of connecting with each and every person he meets. Everyone has their own battles, and Captain Jon seeks to help everyone in their battle through fishing. Whether it be through quality conversation or the joy of a fish on a line, Captain Jon just wants to brighten your day.

Each time I take a cancer survivor fishing or fish with an individual that is going through their own battle with cancer it reminds me of the special time we all have together. I can tell you that the many smiles, the looks on their faces, and the numerous friendships made over the years for individuals around the world has helped ease the burden of my mother. That is why my charter's name has special meaning to me and my family. I can only hope that you can see that as well.
