If you’re looking for a great day of fishing with a top Atlantic Ocean fishing charter – Captain John and Premium Charters has you covered! Both inshore and offshore trips are available: inshore fishing means we’ll be targeting Bass, Flounder, Weakfish, and more, while offshore we target Mahi Mahi, Tuna, Sharks and more! Captain John prefers to throw jigs and poppers to the tuna instead of trolling. Snap jigging is also a custom technique developed by Captain John where we can catch big fish on light tackle. The goal is to get the very most out of light tackle, and we often catch fish with six-foot spinning rod and ten-pound test reel. On offshore trips we use heavier tackle, but still lighter than the other guys. Whether you’re visiting Montauk, NY or live in the area- fishing with Premium Charters and Captain John is a great way to spend your day. There’s a lifetime of memories waiting for you on “Banana Proof” – so book your Montauk fishing charter today and let’s go fishing!
