Captain
Ken Brodeur

Member since April 2021 Waterford, United States
Background
Capt. Ken grew up in Milford, CT, fishing the waters of western Long Island Sound with his father in a 19’ Mako. As a teen, Capt. Ken spent his summers working as a mate in City Island, NY, and winters in Pompano Beach, FL. In 1982 he earned his U.S.C.G. 6-pack license and in 1984 he upgraded to a 100-ton master license, which he currently holds. Capt. Ken then moved east to Mystic and began running charter boats out of Noank. From the early 1980’s Capt. Ken fished with some of the best captains in the business – learning from them everything he could. Capt. Ken’s fishing obsession isn’t confined to saltwater. After competing in local bass fishing club tournaments he found success on the Bassmaster tournament trail, where he won the 2003 Bassmaster Open Championship on Toledo Bend in Louisiana. With that win Capt. Ken launched his professional bass fishing career and qualified to fish the Bassmaster Elite Series tournament trail, featuring the top 100 anglers in the country.
Techniques
I fish a wide range of styles from light tackle up to Penn International 130 lb class rods and reels. Techniques used include everything from live bait fishing to trolling artificial lures and bottom fishing. I enjoy the challenges of finding and catching species from porgy to giant bluefin tuna.
