Captain
Jim Neville

Member since July 2019 Old Town, United States
Background
Jim Neville is a devoted angler and hunter who's been fishing his entire life. He decided to start guiding trips because he enjoys spending days at a time in the outdoors and he loves meeting new people who share the same passion that he does. He served in the Marines for 20 years prior to starting his own business, so he carries the same level of discipline that the military taught him into his fishing career. Jim specializes in ice fishing and he believes that Maine is the best place to do it. Come check out the Pine Tree State and let your guide show you an incredible day of fishing!
Techniques
'''''''''''''"I enjoy all types of freshwater fishing in Maine. The spring finds me casting nymphs for Trout, trolling for Salmon, and casting for Bass. In the summer, I enjoy dry flies for Trout, casting for Bass, and running downriggers for Salmon. In the winter, you'll find me in my ice shack on a frozen lake fishing for Trout, Salmon, and Cusk." – Captain Jim'''''''''''''
