Captain
Jason Shi

Member since June 2023 Wilmington, United States
Background
I moved to Wilmington in 1997, graduated from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington in 2001 with a major in Fishing and a minor in History. I’ve been fishing in the Wilmington and Wrightsville Beach area for 25 years and providing fishing guide services since 2012. As a captain my goal is to provide you with a safe, enjoyable day on the water and do my best to secure a fish on the end of your line! I fish, therefore I am!
Techniques
There are many ways to catch a fish, and on any given day we might try sight casting, live baiting, trolling, artificial lures or even wishful thinking to get a fish in the boat!
