Roger Kassabian

Member since July 2021 Los Angeles, United States
Background
I grew up fishing in our local waters and around Catalina Island. I started working on fishing boats when I was 12 and did it 20 years. I’ve always owned a boat, so spent 34 years on the water. I love teaching everyone how to fish especially the kids. Come out and get the best experience I guarantee we are the best all around
Techniques
Depending on what’s our target, we can use flyline bait which is just the hook. Or even drop down with some weight to catch fish on the bottom. Every trip can be a different technique
