    Full day canyon trip with Capt Louie

    on September 15, 2025

    I booked a full day canyon trip with Louie. Ended up 120 miles south east of Jones but felt comfortable with all the safety equipment Louie has on the boat. We landed multiple yellow fin tunas, mahi, and tile fish. Did so well that we ran out of room in the fish box. I will be booking Louie and the boribite once a summer for a tuna trip.

    Half day Trip with Capt Lou!

    5 Hour Trip - Bay on July 17, 2025

    Went out on a Bay Trip with Capt Lou last summer. A couple drifts in I landed my PB Bay Fluke just shy of 8lbs! Not only does this guy know his way around the south shore, he also knows how to have a good time. If you are looking for a good laugh and great memories look no further than the BoriBite!

    Half Day on the Boribite

    5 Hour Trip - Bay on October 9, 2022

    My first fishing trip was on the BoriBite. What an experience! Louie made the experience memorable and something I would definitely recommend doing with your friends and family. He is great at explaining everything to a beginner and provided us with all the gear.

I've been on the water my whole life—fishing is a tradition that's been passed down through generations in my family. I bring that experience and passion into every trip I run. With over 20 years of boating experience and 5+ years as a licensed captain, I fish out of Jones Inlet specializing in inshore and mid-shore trips. Depending on the season, we target species like blackfish, striped bass, and ocean fluke, with a strong focus on structure fishing. My boat is fully equipped with modern electronics and a Minn Kota trolling motor, allowing us to stay right on top of wrecks and structure to maximize your chances of hooking up. Whether you're brand new or a seasoned angler, I tailor each trip to make it fun, productive, and something you'll remember. My favorite trips are working structure—there's nothing like that first solid hit over a wreck.
