Had an awesome time. John worked his tail off putting on fish and succeeded. He has a great personality, a great sense of humor, and knows how to make your trip wonderful. Highly recommend.

Went out with Captain John and what a day we had. Fishing was on fire. They ate everything we threw at them. Lost count of the Reds, caught black drum, weakie, sea Trout and sheepshead. He gave me a ton of information on St Mary’s as well as the surrounding area. I highly recommend you fish with Captain John, he will work hard for you.

Went fishing with John from Elliots Bluff Charter today. It was my second time out with him and he always puts us on the fish. Today we snagged redfish, whiting, speckled sea trout and a weakfish for the live well. He works his butt off to keep everyone in the boat well taken care of and fishing. He obviously knows the southeast GA / northeast FL area really well and has a pulse on what the fish are doing. I am already looking forward to my next adventure on the water with him.

Elliot's Bluff Charter Company, under the guidance of Captain John Ganas, truly impressed me in every aspect. From punctual setup to Captain John's thorough knowledge of local fishing regulations and his exceptional teaching skills, every detail was handled with professionalism and care. His pricing is fair, offering great value for the experience provided. Additionally, his willingness to assist with fish cleaning added convenience and further demonstrated their dedication to customer satisfaction. In summary, I wholeheartedly recommend Elliot's Bluff Charter Company to anyone seeking a memorable fishing trip led by a knowledgeable and accommodating team

Elliotts Bluff Charter Company provided an exceptional inshore fishing experience. From the knowledgeable Capt. John Ganas to the well-maintained equipment, every aspect of the trip was top-notch. Capt. Ganas skillfully navigated us to prime fishing spots, where we caught a variety of target species. His boat is comfortable, and Capt. Ganas is friendly and helpful throughout the trip. I cannot recommend Capt. Ganas enough, this is the charter to book if your looking for a memorable fishing experience.

I have gone fishing with Capt. John Ganas several times over the past few years. We have had perfect conditions as well as poor conditions, but, Capt. John always finds a way to put us on the bite. He has a wealth of knowledge of the waters around St. Marys/Fernandina that is unmatched. I cannot recommend Elliot's Bluff Charter Co. and Capt. John Ganas enough. If you are looking for a great day on the water, Capt. John is the person to use. Great fellowship and many fish caught! He is the best in the business!

Captain John is THE BEST IN THE BIZ!!! He is so knowledgeable and knows this area like the back of his hand. Not only does he put you on fish and give you a great experience, he also explains so much about the art of catching fish! I've chartered with him several times and there is NO ONE else like him. Already planning my next trip down to St. Mary's to fish with him again!

I booked our original trip for late September as a bday gift for my sweetheart ❤️ then, he broke his ankle. So, we rescheduled for the end of October and John Ganas was extremely communicative and helpful with all of the arrangements. We had a beautiful time on the water - when they weren’t biting, he was quick to take us to another spot until we started catching them like crazy!!! It was sooooo fun! He gave us such a great time and talked about the different properties on the river as we passed them by on the boat - that we went to see a house in the same area the next day…. We’re under contract and moving down from North Carolina in December! Thank you, John! You served Camden County well and were a great Host! Hope to run into you at the docks! Christine & Steve
