I had the most incredible fishing experience with Captain Jay and Osprey Sportfishing Charters. Captain Jay's knowledge and skill ensured an unforgettable day on the water, where we caught plenty of fish and created lifelong memories. Highly recommend!

My fishing trip with Captain Jay was absolutely fantastic. It was an incredible day on the water, with abundant fish and unforgettable moments. Great experience!

Captain Jay knows where all the fish are and 1st mate Tucker was a great teacher and very encouraging. It was the first time for the family and we caught our limit of monster Stripers and had plenty of time to catch other fish as well. Tucker was very skilled filleting all the fish for us. We all had a great time! Highly recommended!

This was a great day for our family (parents and two teens)! Captain Jay knew where all the fish were, and First Mate Justin was a fantastic teacher (and a fish fileting wizard). The boat was clean and beautiful, and both Captain and First Mate were willing to answer never-ending questions about fishing and the area. Completely recommend booking with them.
