He'll have you on fish at the first stop and if he doesn't he'll promptly move to a different spot where he will put you on fish.

Great Captain with customer-oriented service and extensive knowledge on fishing (local and…read moreinternational) I have been fishing with Jason for a number of years and consistently go back to him for winter flounder in the spring and early summer up in Quincy and then follow him in August to Westport, MA for stripers, fluke, sea bass and tautog. Jason is very customer-oriented in his service. (Hopefully you like his sense of humor! ) As an example, Jay will occasionally decide to do some "exploratory trips" early in the season and invite some regulars. Once the season starts up, he may also decide to do some early am striper fishing before the regular 6 am. trip. Again he'll invite regulars occasionally to join him for free! When I wanted to go fishing this year down in NC, Jason put me in touch with a fishing buddy of his who had moved down there from Long Island, NY. I had a great time which couldn't have happened without Jay's help. So, here's a captain who's the best flounder captain in the area (his boat has had the largest flounder caught in MA for something like 9 of the past 10 years) who not only has a very fair charter rate but also offers open boat trips. Jay offers Tuesday and Thursday open boat trips in Quincy so that customers who can't afford to charter a boat can reserve a spot and just pay for themselves. You'll find that Jason has quite a number of regulars, some of whom book every Thursday trip in the best months. Thursday open boat trips are available after moving to Westport in August. In 2013, I was with Jason when he caught the largest tautog for MA: 14 3/4 lbs, length = 30 inches & Girth = 21 as measured at the Westport Marina. (picture attached) Check out the article in On The Water magazine by Ron Powers who was also on the boat with us. Jason is very understated in his manner but if you Google his name and On The Water magazine you'll get to read about the number of 50# stripers he's caught as well as his extensive experience in the fishing industry. As you start the last hour or so of fishing, Jason will start the filleting. Wait 'til you see this poetry in motion. Jason was a professional fish cutter so you will see something unusual when he breaks out his cutting board and knives. The only caveat I have is that Jason is very fishing oriented so his boat is set up the same way, no creature comforts. Women, be warned, no head on board. But, as the trips are 5 hours this usually doesn't present any problems. You can bring your own equipment or just bring your drinks and such and use Jason's set ups. So, if your new to the area or just eager to be fishing with an excellent fisherman and guide, do yourself a favor and book a trip!

Colts State Park is an amazing waterfront park in Bristol, Rhode Island. It's a little drive…read moresoutheast of Providence or north of Newport, but worth a visit if you like wildlife and views of the New England waterfront. There is one paid parking area closest to the beach, volleyball nets, and covered picnic tables, but there's plenty of free parking lots throughout the rest of the park. The waterfront areas include a fishing pier and plenty of benches. The lots are thoughtfully laid out along the walking/biking paths, with plenty of scattered picnic tables. Wildlife is abundant here as we saw loads of geese and quite a few seagulls. Some of the areas of the park are under maintenance and the benches are a bit rusted out, but these minor things didn't detract from my overall enjoyment of Colt State Park, so look forward to returning here.

She is articulate and personable combining just the right amount of enthusiasm and humor throughout the trip.

I feel blessed everyday that I get to live near the ocean here in Massachusetts and to know these amazing mammals live and breathe in our waters.

The trees are just starting to bud, the landscape has that first hint of green, and--best of all--the bugs haven't shown up yet. Add in a warming sun, and it's ideal for a long, relaxed walk. The canal and scenic trails along the Blackstone River are great for walking, running, or biking. If you take your time, you'll spot plenty of bluegills in the water, and occasionally bass or carp. You'll also see fishermen scattered along the canal and river, adding to the laid-back, local feel. What really stands out is how quiet it is compared to other state parks. Unless there is an event, there are no large crowds, and little noise--just open space and nature. Perfect for a casual stroll, a bike ride, fishing, frisbee, a picnic, or just clearing your head.
