JP Charters Customer Reviews

We had a great time with Captain Jon and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He was fantastic with my six-year-old son, came fully prepared, and made the day easy and enjoyable for everyone. He also cleaned our fish with care, which we really appreciated. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a family-friendly fishing trip.

Captain Jon was excellent from start to finish. Even though we were very inexperienced, he put us on the fish right away and made the whole trip easy and enjoyable. We landed five sharks in under three hours and had an amazing time. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a fun and well-run fishing trip.

We had an excellent day on the water with Captain Jon, fishing with my brother visiting from California and our four boys. He had us on fish quickly, and the kids had a blast reeling in a couple dozen bluefish along with Spanish mackerel and false albacore. What stood out most was Captain Jon’s calm, patient approach with the kids. He made sure everyone felt involved, learned along the way, and had a great time from start to finish. It was a fun, educational experience for the whole group, and we would highly recommend him.

Jon was on time and made everything easy from start to finish. We got out and back smoothly with plenty of chances to catch fish along the way, and even the music fit the vibe perfectly. It was an all-around great day on the water with him.

Captain John runs a top-notch charter and delivers exactly the kind of relaxed, low-key experience many anglers are looking for. Even on a day when fishing was slow across the fleet, he stayed positive, kept us moving, and worked hard to put us on fish. Fishing can be unpredictable, but John never let that affect the mood or effort, and his calm, personable approach made the day enjoyable regardless. He communicated with other local captains, adjusted plans as needed, and ultimately helped us bring fish home. His boat was clean, well kept, and offered plenty of room for six guests to fish comfortably. If you’re searching for a reliable Cape May fishing charter with a captain who truly cares about the experience, this is the one to book.

We had a great trip with JP Charters and couldn’t have asked for a better day on the water. The boat was spotless, the equipment was in excellent shape, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Captain Jon is easy to fish with and clearly knows the ocean and where to find fish. We caught plenty of bluefish, limited out on black seabass, and capped off the trip by landing a solid sand shark. It was an action-packed day that kept everyone engaged the entire time. I would highly recommend JP Charters to anyone looking for a deep sea fishing experience in Cape May, and we’re already looking forward to coming back again soon.

Our family had an unforgettable fishing trip with Captain Jonathan from start to finish. From the moment we arrived at the dock, everything ran smoothly. He was there early, fully prepared with the life jackets we requested, and welcomed us with a friendly, professional attitude that immediately put us at ease. Once on the water, the fishing was excellent. We landed 25 bluefish, and Captain Jonathan’s knowledge of trolling kept the rods busy throughout the trip. With excited kids onboard, a few tangled lines were inevitable, but he handled every situation with patience and a great sense of humor, making the experience relaxed and enjoyable for everyone. What truly stood out was how thoughtful and engaging he was with the kids. He let them help place fish in the basket, showed them how to ice the catch properly, and shared interesting facts about bluefish along the way. It turned the trip into both a fun and educational experience that our kids are still talking about. After the 4-hour trip, Captain Jonathan took his time cleaning the fish, packing them carefully on ice, and making sure we were completely taken care of before heading out. We never felt rushed or overlooked. His professionalism, experience, and genuine kindness made this a clear five-star trip. If you’re looking for a family-friendly fishing experience with a captain who truly goes above and beyond, Captain Jonathan is the one to book. We will absolutely be back.

We wanted a more personal experience rather than joining a party boat, and this charter was exactly what we were looking for. We set up a fun 4-hour shark fishing trip and ended up catching 13 sharks during that time. Four hours was the perfect length to keep the kids engaged without wearing them out. Captain John did a great job putting us on fish and keeping the action steady, giving everyone a real workout in the best way. The trip was relaxed, well run, and full of great moments for the whole family. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a private fishing charter in Cape May.
