Dave and Maddy

Dave is the Captain of the Lady J, which runs fishing charters throughout the year. Dave also provides lobsters to Captain Joes. Lady J Fishing Charters offers full and half day trips for bluefish, striped bass, cod, haddock, and tuna, and kids are encouraged–for an adventure of a lifetime! After reading about Dave’s charters I’d love to plan a trip with my son!

From Captain Dave’s website about the Lady J. Fishing Charters:

Hi, I am Captain Dave Jewell owner and operator of the Lady J.  I would like to welcome you aboard my second home to experience what life is like as a professional fisherman. To me there is nothing better or more rewarding than a day at sea loading the boat with the best New England has to offer. 

It is my mission to bring you the excitement that fishing offshore Gloucester brings me each day. Give us the opportunity to show you how great fishing can be and we will not disappoint. Just one trip and you’ll be hooked!

Dave and Wyatt

Old Anchor Estimated From the 1800’s For Sale

Dave Jewell aboard the Lady J got this anchor snarled up with one of his lobster trawls.  he brought it to the industrial boom over at the State fish pier where they hauled it off and now it sits at the top of our driveway here at Captain Joe and Sons.  It stands about 6 feet tall and many people like to use them in front of a seafood restaurant or business.  if you are interested in it, Dave is willing to sell it.  Let me know.

Our Lobsterman Dave Jewell Aboard The Lady J Snarls A Huge Ancient Anchor In A Lobster Trawl

He had to tie it off to the side of the boat because it was too heavy to get aboard with his lobster trap hauler and davit.

So he brought it to the State Fish Pier where he hooked it up to the industrial sized boom and lifted it enough to get aboard the deck.

Bidding starts at $500.  Who wants it?

153 Miles and and 18 Hour Steam Dave Jewell and Crew Land Two Fat Bluefin Tuna

Heading out a couple of days ago Dave and his crew head out for an 18 hour steam of  153 miles to catch themselves a nice pay day. One 800 lber and one 650 these tuna will command a nice price in Japan.

When Dave headed out he was a bit nervous because where they have to go to catch these fish it’s a long way out and there’s no place to run and hide if a storm whips up.  It is where there are warm ocean currents and cold water intersecting and it can produce nasty storms seemingly out of the blue and without much warning.

Video coming tomorrow

CBS Amazing Race 17 Start Gloucester Ma Drop off Bus With Blacked Out Windows And Staging Area

As promised we have more Amazing Race 17 coverage from the very start when the teams were let out of the bus.  If you click on the first pic it will enlarge to the full sized photo to get you right up close to the action.  The second pic is a version that will fit in your browser window when you click on it.

As you can see when you click on the larger picture the name of the bus company is M&L Transit.  It looks as if the windows have a black layer of sheathing that is velcro over where the windows are the entire length of the bus.

In this second set of pictures the teams have disembarked the bus and are waiting to walk down the gangway to get on the lobster boats.  First hand accounts say that there were production people among the contestants reminding them to not talk among one another.  The contestants were not supposed to even speak to their respective teammates at this point.
