Captain
Jon Tkach

Member since February 2019 Chesapeake Beach, United States
Background
Captain Jon grew up in the area and he's been fishing his whole life. He got his license back in 1998 and started running fishing trips. His favorite part of his job is watching first timers experience fishing. He says that people in his line of business often get complacent with the beauty of nature and seeing others experience it all for the first time reminds him how amazing it is.
Techniques
We do all types of Bay fishing. From Trolling for big Spring Trophy Rockfish, to Livelining Spot/Chumming with spinning poles for summer Rockfish and Bluefish, to bottomfishing for Spot and Perch.
