Josh EmersonRepeat angler5.0VerifiedGreat trip with some big blues!!
6 Hour Trip on July 29, 2026 • 6 adults • 1 childWe had an awesome day on the water with Captain Jerry! Even though the fishing conditions weren’t ideal, he worked incredibly hard from start to finish to put us on fish. His determination and experience really showed, and thanks to his persistence we ended up landing some great bluefish and making some fantastic memories. Captain Jerry is not only extremely knowledgeable but also friendly, personable, and a pleasure to spend the day with. His positive attitude and willingness to do whatever it took to give us the best possible experience made all the difference. If you’re looking for a captain who truly cares about his clients and works hard to make every trip a success, Captain Jerry is the one to book. We can’t wait to get back out on the water with him!
Michael CarleenRepeat angler5.0VerifiedAmazing Trip will be back
4 Hour Trip on July 2, 2026 • 4 adults • 1 childWe ended up booking only a week before as we were on last minute vacation from Rhode Island. I let captain Jerry know we were pretty novice at saltwater fishing, but do a lot of freshwater bass fishing at home. As it was my sons first time out on a charter boat we opted for the half day trip, and when we arrived Captain Jerry let us know the fishing had been slower, and gave us options on what we wanted to do. We ended up doing some jigging, followed by some trolling. At the end of our trip he put us right on a pod of dolphins, which was a great experience for the family. Captain Jerry was very knowledgeable, and we had great conversations while fishing. He was great with my son, and gave us a lot of information about local spots and great deals for the rest of our trip! Following the trip, we went to his friends seafood shop which was right next to where we stayed in Avon, got some local scallops, and had a great surf and turf dinner, with plenty of fried blues, and grilled trout that we caught earlier in the day. Thank you Captain Jerry for the amazing experience, and when we go back down for another vacation we will plan another trip with you!
John Lakas5.0VerifiedHad a great time!
4 Hour Trip on July 25, 2026 • 4 adultsCaptain Jerry, was a phenomenal host! Took us out for a 4hr trip, which love that he was willing to brave the weather, and we ended up beating the odds and the weather predictions, thank the Lord! And had minimal rain and some sunshine! Considering 2-3 days of consistent rains prior to our outing we were still able to find and catch a fair amount of blue fish. Jerry's expertise and some grace, amazing trip, great stories, would recommend Jerry and his charter to anyone or family.

Outstanding Captain, Beautiful Day
8 Hour Trip – Inshore/Nearshore on June 24, 2026 • 6 adults • 1 childWe were on the fish 30 minutes into our day but that is honestly secondary to how beautiful it was and how hard the captain worked to keep us on the fish. Captain Jerry has been doing it a long time and there’s a lot of captains that ate half his age that don’t work as hard or are as good with people. I would recommend Captain Jerry to anyone who is looking for a great day on the water. Also - don’t be a noob - check the weather beforehand and know what fish are in season!!!
Cassidy Dugan5.0VerifiedLaid back enjoyable trip
4 Hour Trip - 12:00 PM on June 22, 2026 • 6 adults • 1 childWe had a great time with Captain Jerry. Our kids got tired of fishing so CaptainJerry took us around on the boat. We came in a bit early (our choice) and we were refunded a portion of our trip. I was very impressed that Captain Jerry offered the refund because most companies would not have done that, nor would we have expected it. Thank you Captain!
Laurie Myers5.0VerifiedAwesome Experience and Captain
Family fun trip/ Kid oriented. - 11:00 AM on August 24, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 childrenHad a great time on the boat with our young kids.

we caught quite a few bluefish and one small trout. Capt worked hard to keep us on fish (with some help from the birds). we had a six year old in our group and he had a blast. we were using soft plastics on jig heads and topwater plugs and lost a few to the bluefish—kept the Capt busy tying on fresh rigs. while catching redfish would have been nice, it seems the fishing here hasn’t fully recovered from the recent storm so we were happy to get on a good bluefish bite.
