- Background
- Captain Ted Marshall is the founder and owner of Agawam Boat & Fishing Charters. His love for the ocean began at a young age when he was only 8 years old. He became friends with a retired sea captain who taught him everything he knows about the environment and ecology of the ocean. During this time, he learned how to clam, lobster, and fish for many other species which led to a lifelong appreciation for all aquatic life. Capt. Ted eventually went on to receive a B.S. in Geology, Environmental, and Marine Sciences, and in 1992 he finally earned his master mariner's documents. Since then, Capt. Ted has worked on a number of boats, held the title of shipmaster for many operators, and began running Agawam Boat & Fishing Charters in 1995. Capt. Ted also trains owners in boat operations and performs yacht deliveries regularly. With his breadth of knowledge and kind spirit, Capt. Ted will show you a good time and put you on some incredible fish!
- Techniques
- Captain Ted Marshall has seen it and done it all, including ice fishing, inland sportfishing, and offshore fishing for Shark and giant Tuna. He likes to use whatever technique works best at any given point in time. As the fly fishermen say, 'you have to match the hatch!' Capt. Ted also prefers using gear that gives an equal fighting chance to both the fish and the angler, ensuring the biggest challenge and most excitement!
