Jeff and Jason were incredible hosts to my son, my husband and I. We could hear the various boat captains communicating over the radio, and the fish simply weren't biting. Captain Jeff did not shy away from moving as many times as needed to find the fish, which he did. Each of us caught two or three stripers/blues and pulled in a few skates. In landing the skates (which is apparently something fishermen don't want to do) Jason used the experience to further entertain our curiosity. Skates are ticklish. Yes, that's right--if you tickle their bellies, they curl up around your hand and their mouths look like they're smiling. I may even write a childrens book from the skates' perspective of the bizarre experience of being kidnapped by jigs carrying switchblades, to be tickled on video by humans and then dropped back off at home in the sea, ha!
Poor jokes aside, we are already planning our next charter with the delightful family behind First Light and would be remiss not to recommend that any who are reading this do the same. read more
