Our offshore trip got canceled because of unfavorable weather conditions, prompting us to search for a last-minute 6-hour inshore charter. JC came highly recommended, and we were thrilled with the experience. He wasted no time in getting us on the sheepshead, and they were of impressive quality. The day continued with a steady catch of redfish after redfish, albeit not large ones given the season – still incredibly enjoyable! JC proved to be an excellent guide, extremely helpful, and engaging in conversation. We swapped numerous fishing stories and had a fantastic time overall. I wholeheartedly endorse JC; you won't be disappointed by both the fishing and his lively energy.

Fantastic journey! Captain Jason was not only personable but also incredibly knowledgeable. He guided us to a sheepshead school, ensuring we started catching fish right away. Whether assisting with casting, baiting our lines, or navigating to exclusive and hard-to-reach fishing spots where we landed redfish and black drum, his expertise and attentiveness provided us with the optimal experience. A job well done, and thanks a million!

Captain Jason proved to be an excellent leader. The boat was impeccably clean and comfortable, and we were fortunate to experience an impressive redfish bite under his guidance!

Captain Jason has a knack for selecting the perfect spots! I'm eagerly anticipating taking my brother's family when they come to visit. It's like fishing in hidden, exclusive spots – incredibly cool!

Had an incredible day on the water with Captain Jason. The morning bite was outstanding, yielding 5 reds in the first hour. Despite less-than-ideal conditions, Jason skillfully led us to the fish. As the day progressed, we explored different areas and found success with trout and flounder. Surprisingly, Jason deemed it a "slow day," yet it surpassed the quality of most charters I've experienced. I cannot recommend him enough. Even for someone familiar with Bay Area fishing, I gained valuable insights from him. Jason not only puts you in the midst of the fish but also genuinely cares about the client, the waterways, and ensuring a good time for all.

JC took my friend and me fishing in the afternoon, and we had an incredible time! Everything was fantastic, from the gear he provided to his boat and overall professionalism. Within 10 minutes of reaching spots, we were already on the fish. If anyone is considering booking a trip, I wholeheartedly recommend him.

The daytime weather took a turn for the worse, but Captain JC made the wise decision and proposed a nighttime fishing trip on the same day when conditions improved. Throughout the night, we had numerous opportunities targeting redfish, snook, tarpon, and trout. The fish count became so high in the first 2 hours that we lost track. After losing count, Captain JC suggested trying for my first tarpon and redfish on the fly rod, and I was eager to give it a shot. Although we had three tarpon jump in the first 20 minutes, they unfortunately managed to spit the hook. However, I did manage to land about 6-7 more redfish on the fly rod. At that point, I encouraged Captain JC to pick up a rod himself because the fishing was extraordinary, and I had already caught an incredible number of fish halfway into the trip. I highly, highly recommend Captain JC to anyone, whether you're an experienced angler or not. Captain JC is not only a skilled fisherman but also an exceptional teacher full of knowledge.

I've had the pleasure of going on two charters with Captain JC, and both experiences far exceeded my expectations. Right from the start, he exuded friendliness and took the time to inquire about my preferences, ensuring my experience would be as successful as possible. His guidance led me straight to the fish, accompanied by valuable advice on how to catch them – advice that proved effective. By the end of each trip, I had caught so many fish that my arms were already sore! Additionally, Captain JC impressed me with his professionalism and unwavering dedication to ensuring my experience was nothing short of the best it could be. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better day of fishing with such a fantastic captain at an affordable price. I wholeheartedly recommend him, giving a solid 10/10 rating.
