Tuna Tail Charters Deep Sea Fishing 

John and Jeff were prompt in the morning and made us comfortable during some choppy weather! During our trip they were very informative on how to fish for certain species. John and Jeff were very easy to talk to and very uplifting and encouraging while fishing. It felt like you were just fishing with family. We bought striped bass, squid, mackerel, and had a couple big bites. It was our first time deep sea fishing and they made it memorable for sure! Thank you Capt. John and first mate Jeff!

Captain John and first mate Jeff were amazing! You catch fish together; you lose fish together. Together we caught a monster tuna! John, steering the boat, Jeff and I trading off reeling. (a real bonding experience!) It was too big to keep, but John and Jeff got it all the way to the boat to take pictures and an awesome video! I came all the way to Massachusetts to try and catch a big fish and they made sure it happened! This was an amazing experience! I never thought I would catch a giant bluefin tuna like that! Bucket list? CHECK! Cannot wait to do it again. Highly recommended for an experience of a lifetime.

We had an all around wonderful experience with the charter; this includes booking it, communication with John along the way, and the fishing. We went out fishing in open water first and enjoyed catching Hollock and Cusk, and then went along the shore for striped bass (and threw in some local history). They even mongered and bagged the fish for us to take home. The boat had plent of room as well. John had a lot of knowledge over the years to know where to fish but also utilized his radio to communicate with other boaters on where the fish were biting. They worked with or son to show him how to fish. When we return, it is easy for us to repeat with John because it really was a wonderful eperience and highly recommended.

This trip was incredible. My 13 year old son loves fishing and this was our second deep sea excursion. We were on the boat for 9 hours. Caught countless bait - mackeral and whiting - and I caught a squid! The highlight of the trip was when my son caught a 12 foot Porbeagle! Fishing is a patient sport. We may not have had a lot of big bites but we had a wonderful time on the water with Captain John and first mate Jeff. The coast of NE is breathtaking, especially in the Fall. Next time we are in Massachusetts we will be going back out on the water with Captain John and Jeff.

What a great trip! We had a moms and 14yo sons fishing trip. Captain John and mate Jeff took great care of us. We didn't catch anything huge in spite of trying 3 spots, but we got a big mackerel and a haddock to keep. We also caught a small cod, redfish, and sculpin. John and Jeff were very friendly and had fun with the boys while keeping everyone safe. The boat had enough room for 6 passengers and nice places in the cabin to sit and chat on the ride out and also keep us out of the spray. Highly recommend.

We went out with Captain John and his first Mate Jeff. They working their tails off the entire trip to ensure we had a safe, fun and productive fishing trip. Would absolutely recommend them for anyone looking to fish the Gloucester/Cape Ann area for whatever sort of fish they seek to catch. Will definitely go out with them again in the future.

Bad weather in the morning canceled our tuna trip, luckily Cap. John called an audible and we transitioned to inshore in the afternoon. We were gifted 2 giant striped bass, both over 50”, and had a great time. Thanks for a great trip!

We had the best time with Captain John and Jimmy. We set out to catch a big fish for our son, and boy did we have success! we caught 2 big strippers and had so much fun.

The Captain and First Mate were awesome. Lots of knowledge! They made sure we had everything we needed to catch fish that day. We caught a 26 pound stripped bass.

John and Jeff were excellent! They got us on the fish fast and have great knowledge and stories to keep you entertained. If you're going fishing you'd be foolish not to pick this charter.
