Sea Wolfe Sportfishing

With nothing for miles around, Bermuda is one of the hottest offshore fishing destinations in the Atlantic. Sea Wolfe Sportfishing is waiting to take you out to battle a range of monster fish. Discover stunning, exotic marine life aboard a tailor-made trip or get to know new people on a shared charter.

Captain Russell Young has been fishing since he can remember. Following in his father’s footsteps, he became a captain at the age of 18 and has been running charters for over 30 years now. He promises a catch for each and every customer and hopes to share his passion with you in the stunning surroundings of Bermuda.

Restored in 2017, the 35’ Bruno and Stillman downeast boat features modern amenities including a full head toilet and plenty of comfortable seating. Equipped with outriggers and downriggers, you’ll have an incredible reach when trolling the open waters. Settle into the fighting chair as soon as you pick up your rod, and get ready to do battle with some of the ocean’s biggest creatures.

You’ll be going after some highly-prized species. From tough-fighting Tinas and Wahoos to monster leaping Marlin and strong Tuna, you’ll have your hands full whatever you choose to target. Filling the boat will never have been so rewarding, as you battle hard to earn your dinner, and head home with some delicious rewards.

If you want to bring the family along, there’s plenty for everyone on board to do. Children over 8 years old are welcome to try fishing and you’ll have the chance to go swimming with turtles on your way back to shore.

Capt. Russell is happy to pick you up within a 20 min radius of the port. At the end of the trip, he’ll even clean and fillet your catch for you to enjoy right away at a beachside restaurant. Bring your own drinks and snacks aboard, and settle in to explore a whole new world of fishing with Sea Wolfe Sportfishing!
