Light Tackle Guided Bay Trips out of Brigantine, NJ:
Our light tackle trips are usually dependent on tide or sunrise and sunset. Our capacity for these bay trips is 2 or a tight 3.

The boat is a 26’ center console catamaran that runs comfortably at 35 MPH and quickly gets you to the fishing grounds. She has an enclosed head inside the console, and her electronics include radar, GPS, fishfinder, plotter, VHF radios, and autopilot.
Captain:
Capt. John Wilkinson was first licensed by the United States Coast Guard as a 6 pack un-inspected vessel near coastal powerboat operator in 1973. Since then, he has upgraded his license and now holds a 100 ton inspected vessel near the coastal master license.
He has been fishing and running powerboats since the 1950s and has been charter fishing for over 40 years. He has fished the entire east coast from Maine to the Florida Keys.
