Background
Captain 'Sloppy Joe' Napaver has several decades of fishing experience under his belt, but seeing the smile on his guests' faces when they reel in a big catch is something that never gets old. He's always keen on making sure everybody has a good time and the best possible chance of getting a good catch.
