Private Deep Sea Fishing Point Pleasant
When you're ready to leave the inshore crowd behind and get serious about putting quality fish in the cooler, Jordi Sport Fishing's private offshore charter is exactly what you need. This isn't your typical half-day run to the local reefs – we're talking about a full-day commitment that takes you 30 to 60 miles off Point Pleasant's coast to where the real action happens. With just six anglers max, you get the personalized attention and prime fishing spots that make the difference between a good day and an epic day on the water. The crew knows these offshore wrecks like the back of their hand, and they're not just along for the ride – they're there to put you on fish.
What to Expect on the Water
Your day starts early with a run out to productive structure that most weekend warriors never see. We're targeting those deep wrecks and ledges where jumbo sea bass stack up thick, and the ride out gives you time to get your gear sorted and game plan locked in. The beauty of going private means no fighting for rail space or dealing with tangled lines from inexperienced anglers. You'll have room to work, and the crew can focus entirely on keeping your group on fish. The offshore environment is a different beast – deeper water, bigger fish, and when conditions line up right, the kind of action that keeps you talking about it all winter. Don't expect to be back at the dock by noon either – this is a full commitment that pays off with coolers full of quality fillets and the satisfaction of fishing waters that separate the serious anglers from the weekend crowd.
Bottom Fishing the Wrecks
Success on these offshore grounds comes down to knowing the structure and having the right approach. We're primarily bottom fishing these productive wrecks, using heavy sinkers to get your bait down through the current and right into the strike zone where those jumbo sea bass are holding. The crew will have you rigged with circle hooks and fresh bait that gets results – think clams, squid, and whatever's working best that particular day. These deep wrecks hold fish because they provide everything sea bass need: shelter, current breaks, and plenty of bait fish. The key is staying patient and letting your bait work in that bottom zone where the big ones cruise. When the bite is on, it's not uncommon to have doubles and triples hitting the deck, but even on slower days, the quality of fish you're targeting makes every hookup count. Keep your drag settings reasonable and let the fish do the work – these aren't the small keeper-sized bass you might catch closer to shore.
Target Species
Black sea bass are the bread and butter of this trip, and for good reason. These chunky bottom dwellers love the deep structure we're fishing, and the offshore population includes some real heavyweight specimens that can push several pounds. Sea bass are aggressive feeders when they're active, often hitting baits hard and fighting with surprising strength for their size. The best part about targeting them this far offshore is the size upgrade – while inshore spots might produce plenty of throwbacks, these deep wrecks consistently hold keeper-sized fish and larger specimens that make the long run worthwhile. They're excellent table fare too, with firm white meat that's perfect for the grill or frying pan. Peak action typically happens during the warmer months, but these offshore spots can produce quality fish well into the fall when inshore fishing starts to slow down.
Mahi mahi add an exciting wild card element to this offshore adventure. These fast-growing, brilliantly colored fish are opportunistic feeders that show up around floating debris, weed lines, and sometimes even around the same structure we're fishing for sea bass. When mahi are in the area, they bring a completely different kind of excitement – they're fast, acrobatic, and absolutely gorgeous fish that fight with surprising power. The crew keeps an eye out for floating objects, color changes in the water, and bird activity that might indicate mahi in the area. These fish are seasonal visitors to our offshore waters, typically showing up when water temperatures warm up and bait fish are abundant. Landing a few mahi on top of a solid sea bass bite makes for the kind of mixed bag that keeps offshore fishing interesting and unpredictable.
Why Anglers Keep Coming Back
There's something addictive about offshore fishing that keeps serious anglers coming back season after season. Maybe it's the anticipation during that long run out, wondering what the wrecks are going to produce. Could be the satisfaction of working deeper water where every fish feels earned. The truth is, once you experience the difference between inshore and offshore fishing – the bigger fish, the less crowded waters, the feeling of being out there where it really counts – it's hard to go back to fighting weekend crowds on the local party boats. The crew's local knowledge makes a huge difference too. They're not just running to the same public numbers everyone else hits. These guys know the subtle differences between wrecks, how tides and weather affect the bite, and when to make moves that keep you on productive water. That's the kind of expertise you can't get from a GPS unit or fishing app.

If you're tired of mediocre fishing and ready to experience what Point Pleasant's offshore waters really have to offer, this private charter with Jordi Sport Fishing delivers the goods. Six angler max means you're not just another face in the crowd, and that full-day commitment gives you the time needed to make the most of these distant fishing grounds.
