The Big Jamaica enjoyed some excellent bluefish action last week. "We reached our boat limit before we were halfway through the trip," the crew reported from last Thursday's trip, adding "Once the limit was met, we switched over to bottom fishing and finished the day catching some sea bass and plenty of ling." Luke Valeriano of Colonia took that particular pool with a 3-pound black sea bass. "The fishing has been great every day and we have been reading plenty of bluefish on the scope," was what we heard from the crew. The Big Jamaica is sailing daily for bluefish, sea bass, and ling.

The Jamaica offers a variety of fishing experiences throughout the year, catering to first time, novice and expert anglers. Bluefishing trips typically start in mid-May and run every day and night until early September. Bluefish, pound for pound the best fighting fish on the East Coast, offer a thrill and fight that cannot be equaled in a day or night trip environment. Tuna season begins the beginning of September, overlapping with bluefish season, and we run 7 days a week through the fall out to the canyons for Yellowfin, Longfin, Bigeye and Bluefin Tuna as well as Swordfish, Mahi Mahi and Tile Fish. Our Canyon tuna trips will typically continue through the end of November most years, depending on how long the tuna stay within our range. These 22 Hour trips provide access to some of the largest fish caught on rod and reel and allow even the most novice angler to experience a thrill and fight of a lifetime. During November & December the 125’ Big Jamaica will also sail for Striped Bass when not offshore Sea Bass fishing. Check our "Schedule" for days and times. The wintertime brings us into offshore wreck season. Our offshore trips typically start in late November, overlapping Tuna season, and run all winter long right into the springtime. Trips will typically sail 4 times a week throughout the months of December, January, February, March and April. These 18 Hour excursions provide Cod, Pollock, Hake & Jumbo Porgies in sizes and quantities not found on inshore wrecks with any regularity.
