Not to sound too nostalgic and old, but we appreciated that he went the extra mile to draw on a map of where we should go as he explained everything. Not many people these days will do that for you. We got some live bloodworms and frozen mullet and some hooks that he suggested we might find useful. He suggested that we go to Sunset Beach. We did end up catching a few weakfish and a spotfish (we are guessing that these are the types). We were so touched by the attentive and intentional help and we will definitely be back if we are in the area. I strongly encourage you to stop by if you are looking for local suggestions and friendly help for all your fishing needs.

It can be…read moreintimidating to learn how to fish when you are 42 years old, have no prior knowledge, and need to figure it all out! My needs were heard and addressed by Joe who truly made me feel better about being so new and ignorant to the sport. He showed me what I needed and why I might consider alternatives. Budget was kept in mind and I never felt pressured to buy. We laughed a lot too! Joe even recommended some spots to check out to catch some fish and provided me with literature describing laws/regulations, safety information, and resources that are helpful for beginners. They have my business for sure going forward! Thank You Cape May Bait & Tackle

Last minute decision to come to Cape May…read more Jumped online and found a reasonable charter at the last moment. Worked out perfectly on a Thursday afternoon. Just the two of us picked the option for fishing. 1pm time. Read the tips to show up an hour early. The boat before us wasn't back yet, and the parking was none. There are maybe 3 businesses sharing one parking area and more businesses fighting for street parking. This was just a little frustrating. Once the boat tour before us came back and left, they get you double parked in their tiny lot. If you don't like that, come early to find street parking. Other than that. This is a bigger charter. You pay a rental for the rod when you purchase your ticket, which includes your fishing license. There are about 25 spots for rods built into the side of the boat, but we were fortunately there was not that many people. Even with only about 15 people on our side, with the drifting the boat does you are guaranteed to get tangled at least once. Thank goodness for Joe and the help on the boat. There in a flash to fix your rod, untangle, or unhook your fish. I can unhook my own bass, but I don't know salt water fish and didn't want to stick my finger in anything I didn't know. You get two cups of bait. They show you how to bait your hook, and once the hour long trip out is over, you do your line and go. The captain was great with getting us on the fish. I caught a couple of flounders, a bunch of bass and a sea Robin! I lost count of how many I caught. We caught lots and got a coupl of keepers. We didn't get the heaviest, but it was close. Bathrooms for all on the boat. Snacks for purchase. Sun shirts for purchase if needed. Be like the cool kids and take a slim rag for after you bait your hook. It's worth the money. If you wanted less people you will be paying more on a different charter. Again a shout out to a great ships crew and their great job. They cleaned our catch and were fun. Thanks for a great time.

I'll spend my dough with their competitors, since their attitude and indifference brought about this negative factual review. While in the Cape May, you may keep this in mind.
