Captain Jamie certainly knows how to find fish! He was so knowledgeable about the tides, and where the fish like to feed. I am sure his expertise helped us catch fish. Cooper, the first mate made it super easy, by baiting the hook and casting for us.We packed a lot in our 2 hour trip. Definitely a repeat activity. But next time 4 hours is a must, the time went by too fast. Thanks for the fun day and great memories!

Jessica Booth

1689713223

Captain Jamie was awesome, he knew the hot spots to fish based on the tide, was excited to get us onto the stripers and provided excellent guidance. First mate Cooper was patient, experienced and always in just the right spots! The boat was beautiful, spotless and very comfortable. The cabin even has pillows! 😍 100% recommend you book with Reel Action for an amazing day of fishing.

Captain Jamie and Tim were awesome! Very knowledgeable and worked their tails off to get us on some fish…on a very tough bite day. Highly recommend!

Family of 6 … 3 kids ages 2, 9, & 12. Jamie and Tim were both great with the kids; teaching them to cast and reel and even steer the boat. Jamie was responsive via phone and text and fit us in last minute. We had a great time!From our 12 yo daughter:Fishing with Jamie and Tim was very fun! The reasons why are because they had different fishing rods and my brothers both caught a lot of fish. After we caught several mackerel, we went fishing for bass and striper which was also a fun experience. The last thing we did was go and look at the harbour seals. This was a very interesting trip worthy of 5 stars.
