Capt. Bill runs trips out of St. James City aboard a 2022 Grady White 30' Marlin. These waters are known for Snappers and Groupers and he will show you how to catch them. With 15 years of experience, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!

    Captain Bill and our Fantastic Fishing Excursion

    6時間釣りツアー • 3 大人

    We found Captain Bill by chance and boy were we lucky! What a great day. Captain Bill took care of us, and it made for a great day! His boat is beautiful; the equipment was superb; and Captain Bill took care of the rest. He loves working with kids and was excited to have our 13-year-old son on board. He really knows the waters and all the variety of fish. We caught a ton of smaller fish as we did a 6-hour excursion that kept us about 30 miles from shore. If you want the big grouper, first fish when they are in season and second, you need to go out much further. I would book Captain Bill again in a heartbeat.

    Amy, Brian, and JJ: Thank you so much for the kind review. I really enjoyed having you on board. It was great to watch JJ reel in some fish. Too bad there’s not a Scout badge for Saltwater fish cause he would get one for sure. Thanks again and hope to see you in the future. Capt. Bill

    Offshore

    6時間釣りツアー • 4 大人

    Having fished offshore everywhere from the rugged coasts of Alaska to the tropical waters of the Dominican Republic, I can say with confidence that this experience was absolute first-rate! Captain Bill truly delivered for our family trip. He is the perfect blend of what you want: Experienced, Kind, Helpful, and Determined. Whether you are a seasoned angler or out with the family, his expertise and attitude make all the difference. If you're looking for a captain who is as dedicated to your success as he is, look no further. :-)

Capr Bill has class,patience, and knowledge ,would highly recommend him to anyone ,My wife would have even enjoyed how comfortable his 30' boat is. Thank you Bill

    Bruce, thanks for the great review. Glad your group enjoyed the trip. Great bunch of guys. Yes, it was a little stressful in the fog, thanks for your help spotting the markers. By the way, I had 16,000 steps on my phone today. Take care, Capt Bill Schwalm

    Captain Bill was fantastic.... a seasoned fisherman, an experienced captain and a super nice guy. The communication ahead of time was excellent. We were on fish all morning and were very comfortable on his well equipped Grady White. An overall great experience!

    What is more memorable? Catching a lot of fish? Or having a captain who makes it enjoyable to be on his boat? Fortunately, we had both! Bill's easy personality and his effort to call everyone by name made everyone feel comfortable. And we caught more than 75 fish on our 6 hour trip. We will be eating all the snapper we can handle for the next week. Also caught a 200 pound nurse shark. We look forward to hiring Bill again.
