Captain John operates fishing trips from Cedar Point and Morehead City aboard a 26’ Pathfinder or 27' Onslow Bay. With over 20 years of fishing experience on the Crystal Coast and professional experience spanning the entire East Coast, Captain John is well-equipped to target a wide variety of fish.

Beginning his career as a mate, he eventually pursued higher education, earning an MBA in 2022. After a year of contemplation about his career path, he decided to follow his passion and become a captain. Since then, he has been leading his Fishing Charters and captaining numerous other boats.

Captain John operates a meticulously maintained 26'2" Pathfinder HPS boat, built by the reputable Maverick Boat Group in 2014. This vessel is powered by a robust 2014 Yamaha 300 HP 4-Stroke motor, ensuring both reliability and performance on the water. Equipped with state-of-the-art Garmin electronics and upper station controls, the boat is designed to navigate efficiently and locate prime fishing spots. With a center console layout, it offers ample space and comfort, accommodating up to 6 clients for an exceptional fishing experience. Captain John’s expertise, combined with this well-appointed vessel, guarantees a successful and enjoyable outing on the Crystal Coast.

You'll target your catch by spinning, trolling, jigging, or maybe something more specialized in this area.  Rods, reels, and tackle are supplied, along with lures. You may bring your own rod and reel if you want. Capt. John also allows fly fishing (client's request), but you will need to bring your own fly gear. Capt. John thrives off the enjoyment of providing his clients with lifelong memories.
