Captain
Jerry Bradford

Member since October 2023 Rio Hondo, United States

Background: I got my first taste of saltwater fishing in the early 80s when I moved to New Orleans for a few years and fell in love with it. I moved to the valley in 2015 and have been fishing the bay ever since. I am "living the dream" and enjoying every minute of it!
Techniques: Drifting and throwing soft plastics is my favorite method, but can adapt to other methods when weather dictates.

Half Day Trip (AM)

Was a bit reluctant to try bay fishing with all the u knows but Captain Jerry made it an unbelievable first experience. Very knowledgeable of the area and was totally focused on finding fish. He was a great teacher and not intimidating at all - he wanted all 3 of us in our group to be successful. Would recommend to anyone - beautiful boat and tons of equipment that showed he takes pride and has fun at what he does. Mark Urquhart, Jamestown North Dakota.

Capt Jerry was top notch! This was our first charter experience. Most of the time we are out with family and friends. However, Capt Jerry made it feel like a family outing! Very professional and put us on plenty of fish. Even in crowded waters! We had a ton of fun!

Before the trip Captain Jerry contacted us and let us know where to meet. At the boat he helped us find seats and asked our hopes for the day. He was very personable and helpful especially for the inexperienced fishermen in our group.

Great day on the water with my two boys and Captain Jerry! Jerry has a high IQ when it comes to fishing and a high EQ when it comes to his clients. He knows when to get involved and when to let the fun happen. Great boat, gear and knowledgeable Captain. You can go fishing with anyone. If you’d like to go catching, I’d recommend a day on the water with Captain Jerry!
