Excellent fishing trip very knowledgeable Capt Jack, knew where the fish were biting and his insight of the waters and currents in relation to the tides was excellent. Would highly recommend to all for a great fishing experience.

We booked a 3-hour charter with Captain Jack and couldn’t be happier. He was very responsible and flexible, given that we had some weather to work around. He’s clearly a professional, and despite some challenges, made the best of the trip and was able to make sure we enjoyed ourselves and caught some fish. Everyone enjoyed the experience—would highly recommend. We’d do it again!

This was a perfect trip! I took my 2 teenage nephews and my nine year old son. Captain Jack’s attention to safety, patience, and knowledge of the area was amazing! We started out in Long Island Sound where we caught quite a few sand sharks, porgie, and a few other fish. After that we moved in to the Connecticut River where all 4 of us caught a large striped bass in the span of an hour and a half. I highly recommend Captain Jack and Bell8 charters especially if you have younger or novice... Meer

What a perfect end to our short time here in CT!  Beautiful day on the water with such a gracious host!!  And we caught fish the entire time!  Highly recommend, 5 stars

All three of us caught fish. The captain took us to three different locations to fish and went out of his way to make sure we were having a good time.
