Background
Captain Bolton says: "I became a fisherman because I've fished all my life, both freshwater and saltwater. Fishing is a passion for me and I want to share my passion with those who fish with me.".

Techniques
Preferred style is trolling or stabbing for white bass. Cork fishing and jigging for crappie, using fresh shad for striped bass and catfish.
