Captain Erik Sigtermans has had a fierce love for fishing, the Absecon Bay, and the surrounding waters since he was a young child. He grew up fishing in the Absecon Bay on a Boston Whaler, learning where the best fishing spots are and the most effective ways for catching target species. As he grew older, he developed such a passion for fishing that he knew he wanted to share it with others so they could also experience the thrill of living off of the land. With some inspiration from the legacy of his grandfather William "Silly Willy", who taught him to fish, Captain Erik developed Silly Willy Charters and takes pride in creating memories with others that are sure to last a lifetime.
