Born and raised in Montauk, New York, Ben started working on boats at the age of 12 and never looked back. He fished from Montauk's rocky shores as a hard core surfcaster before getting his captains license and moving on to the easier world of boat fishing. Today he's comfortable in every fishery Montauk has to offer. Anything from a short day trip to a canyon overnighter, the Push the Limit crew works hard to keep you happy.
