Member since May 2017 Nags Head, United States
Background
I'm a 3rd generation fishing captain and owner-operator. I have been running trips out of Oregon Inlet, North Carolina, since 1993 and have fished all over commercial and charter. My crew and I take pride in our strong network of boats in the Oregon Inlet fleet, and we all work hard to stay on top of the best fishing option for the conditions. My crew and I have been featured on two seasons of the National Geographic channel's 'Wicked Tuna Outer Banks' hit series, where we finished 3rd place overall for the season against some tough competition like the 'Hot Tuna' and other cast members! We just wrapped filming of Wicked Tuna Outer Banks, season 6, aboard the Kahuna! We had an excellent Bluefin season, and I can't wait for everyone to watch! I can't reveal any details about the season yet!
Techniques
We typically troll dead baits but also have the 'green stick' to deploy when the fish get picky! We also use kites and chunk bait while drifting. In the fall we troll dredges for White Marlin allow the anglers to hook their own fish. Whatever style of fishing is needed we have it covered!!
