Captain Jamie and Big Chunk
The official site credits Thomas with more than 30 years fishing the Forgotten Coast. Big Chunk is described as a 30-foot Century, with a captain and one deckhand present on trips.
The fishing approach includes live bait, trolling, bottom fishing and working reefs or wrecks. The crew adapts the method to conditions and the group’s interests. Despite the business name, the advertised fishing program is broader than shark fishing.

Trips and rate choices
The rate page lists eight-, ten- and twelve-hour trips at $1,800, $2,000 and $2,200 respectively. It also publishes shorter or alternative packages, including a five-hour option at $1,100 and an eight-hour option at $1,450. Confirm which package applies to your intended fishing and date.
The site offers related lodging and hunting information, but those are separate products. A fishing quote should identify the boat, duration and passenger count rather than assuming accommodation or other activities are included.
Reservations and policies
A minimum $200 deposit is required. The posted policy requires cancellation at least five days before the charter for a refund. If the operator cancels for unavoidable circumstances such as weather, it offers a refund when rescheduling is not possible.
Call or email to confirm bait, tackle, license coverage, fish cleaning, refreshments and gratuity. Ask for the precise departure dock, parking and check-in time. The Highway 98 address is the published business location; final boarding directions should come from the crew.
Details checked September 26, 2026, using the operator’s published information. Rates, boats, meeting points and policies can change; confirm the final trip details directly. Listed species describe possible targets, not a guaranteed catch or an open harvest season.
