Our Captains And Mates
All of our captains are fully qualified and licensed by the United States Coast Guard. They are well acquainted with all of the vessels and have extensive knowledge of the local waters. Our Captains will take you to their exclusive fishing spots for Reef & Wreck fishing or offshore for your Bluewater fishing experience. Our Captains and Mates will bait the hooks for you, show you how to cast and reel in your catch. When you arrive back at the dock, your fish will be cleaned and bagged; many of the local restaurants will cook your catch for you.
The safety and welfare of our customers while aboard our vessels is top priority and our captains are trained and certified by the American Red Cross in First Aid and CPR.
