Captain
Kurt Ward

Member since March 2019 Virginia Beach, United States
Background
I started fishing professionally at the age of 17 when I took a position on a sportfishing boat out of Hatteras and Virginia Beach. During my time of competitive fishing, I traveled all over the world, until settling into my own business as a commercial fisherman. With over 18 years of experience, I have gained a vast knowledge of the local waters from Virginia to North Carolina.
Techniques
With a focus on inshore charters; most common techniques used will be trolling, sight casting, and chumming for Spanish Mackerel, Taylor Bluefish, Flounder, Small Sharks, and Cobia.
