Amazing day with the family.  It was my daughter’s first time saltwater fishing. She had a blast and reeled in two beautiful keepers. Captain Gabe was great with her and did a fantastic job.  Lots of fish, lots of fun, and lots of great memories made.  Captain Gabe crushed it!

Capt Gabe is amazing. He made us all feel welcome and comfortable with our first fishing experience. I would recommend him to anyone. If you are on the fence get off and book a trip with Capt Gabe.

"Thanks to Capt Gabe’s patience and knowledge, Dad and Grandad were able to enjoy the trip as much as the kids. Definitely recommend and hope to book again this summer!"

"Capt Gabe was great! He was very knowledgeable of the area and the tides and had some good secrets to catching fish!! Not only was he knowledgeable but he was also a very generous and genuine guy, with plenty of stories! We laughed and fished and I dare say we made a new friend. He has a very nice boat, it was quick and comfortable and it looked very nice! When we come back you know for sure he’s our man for fishing, and I can’t wait to come back."

"I've been out many times with Gabe, sometimes with the family and sometimes solo. We always have a great time and catch fish. He's great with the kids, always keeping them entertained with fishing, crabbing, and passing along knowledge and stories. Gabe has guided me to my first flounder, first sea bass, first false albacore, and my first tog. My kids have had many first catches and nature encounters on his boat. Water Dog is an outstanding outfit."

This was such a great trip. Gabe made us feel welcome and was very easy to work with. He took care of me and my 3 sons, and worked hard to get us hooked up. We all caught fish and had a great day. Gabe was a great communicator before the trip, and kept us moving to new spots if we weren’t on fish. I’d definitely do this trip again on another shore vacation. Highly recommend! 10 stars.

"Whether you enjoy fishing, are a seasoned fisherman or novice, or just like being on the water in a boat, Gabe is the perfect captain. He has years of experience, and knows the best places to fish or see a sunset. He’s very patient with beginners, especially kids, and can give the experienced fisherman the little edge to catch the big fish. I actually caught my first flounder at 70 years old with him."

" I always have a great trip with Captain Gabe. His boat, electronics, and equipment are top-notch, and his years of experience and his knowledge of the waters come through in his ability to put us on fish. I recently caught my largest flounder during a back bay trip where no one else around us was catching much of anything! Captain Gabe's enthusiasm really shows when you catch fish, and it makes the trip all the more enjoyable."

"I've had a lot of productive and fun trips with Gabe, getting a variety of fish. Surface of the water to the  bottom, he can find them. The boat is well outfitted for all possibilities."

My sons and 83 yr old mom had a great time catching flounder. My mom caught two on one pole. Gabriel was patient, kind, and spent time showing my very excited 13 yr old the ropes.

"I’ve fished with Gabe a bunch of times. He always has what’s needed to catch what we’ve been after. He put me on my first trigger fish. We’ve had days catching big amounts of sea bass and large tog too. The boat is rigged with very nice electronics to pinpoint the fish. Always a good time."

“Awesome fishing experience. Gabe is super dialed  in and knows right where to put his clients to get on fish. Great local knowledge of the area and TONS of experience on the water. Had quite the bountiful fish fry after our last outing. Highly recommended for anyone in South Jersey looking for a quality guide. Best chance to get into some great fishing!”

If you are in the sea isle/avalon/stone harbor area I highly suggest booking a trip with Gabe! Truly a fantastic guide was very knowledgeable of the waters and what was hitting. Got us into a bunch of flounder and had a great morning. Super accommodating helped make the trip work for my family! Going with Gabe made it a heck of an experience that we will be doing every year on vacation! Look forward to the next trip!

“ I had the pleasure of fishing with Captain Gabe on an action packed striped bass and black sea bass combo trip. I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of the fishing tackle, the electronics, the safety equipment and the excellent condition of his vessel. We had a great trip and I highly recommend booking a trip with Water Dog.”
