Captain Ken is the former host of "Let’s Catch Fish" on ESPN radio in Rochester NY. He was a co-angler on the ESPN Northern Tour and also had a 3rd place finish for Bass Fishing on the ESPN trail. Kenzi Boats is a family-friendly charter, and Captain Ken has experience with being a venture crew leader with the boy scouts and is patient with children. “I have always had a passion for the sport since a young boy. I like the complexity of solving the puzzle of how to get the fish I am targeting to strike. I enjoy teaching my customers fishing techniques that they can build on in the future to be successful in catching fish.”

If you want a CHANCE at that trophy fish, you have to catch what they like. You have to put in the work.” All I could think of in reply at that moment was, “Yes Chef”, I do want that fish, I do want my kids to see the process, I do want THAT chance at catching something awesome. These are the sounds when...

Captain Ken, went above and beyond! We not only caught fish but made some lasting memory’s. Being off season the fishing was slow but with the captain’s knowledge and hard work he put us on the fish!
