Joseph Spaulding

Member since April 2019 Islamorada, United States
Background
Captain Joseph Spaulding is a 4th generation angler with over 15 years experience fishing on the productive waters of Islamorada. He and his two brothers grew up with rods in their hands, fishing alongside their father on his charter boat. Capt. Joey learned the ins and outs of the charter business from his dad and eventually followed in his footsteps to become his own captain and run his own charter. That age-old saying about saltwater running through the veins definitely applies to him. “I still get the same feeling when I’m out on the water as I did when I was a child.” Capt. Joey’s passion for the deep blue is evident from the moment you step onto the LegaSea, and he invites you to join him and experience the thrill of a lifetime! So don’t hold back and book your trip today!
