About the charter captain
Narragansett, Rhode Island, United States
Captain John has been fishing his whole life – and like a kid, he has never lost his sense of wonder about the sea. In college, he studied Fisheries Science at the University of Rhode Island. For many years he was a commercial fisherman, catching everything from Swordfish to Squid, often a hundred miles from land. Lately, Captain John prefers being closer to home, targeting the fish he loves on short trips. Aside from his 31' JC fishing boat, he also captains a pilot boat, which brings pilots to and from large tankers, freighters, and chemical carriers. It's year-round work and has sharpened his skill as a boat captain. The captain also is a writer and photographer. For two decades he has published stories in many fishing magazines, including On the Water, The Fisherman Magazine, Sport Fishing Magazine, Anglers Journal, Soundings, and National Fisherman. Captain John has made videos on commercial fishing for the Commercial Fishing Center of Rhode Island.

As Good As It Gets!
Amazing 4 hours on the water with two extremely friendly, accommodating and supportive experts at sea. Great guys who ensured our family had a blast -- especially my 10-year-old who caught no less than 30 fish! Count us in for next summer!

Awesome time
We caught more fish than we could count and then went home and made the best fish tacos following firstmate Chris's advice. Can't wait to do it again.
