Captain
Johnny Fairbanks

Member since June 2021 Hatteras, United States
Background
Having grown up in Hatteras, NC, Captain John has always admired all the charter boats and captains. With his first job cleaning a boat when he was 10, the captain would eventually get his first full-time job mating offshore at the age of 14. Having fished with some amazing charter captains, he gained knowledge on the industry and is ready to use everything he's learned!
Techniques
I have no preference to any certain kind of fishing, whatever’s biting that day is my favorite. I’m gonna do my best to use different styles and techniques depending on the day and conditions to put fish on the dock!
