Captain
Chad Jaynes

Member since October 2021 Fernandina Beach, United States
Background
Captain Chad has fished for as long as he can remember. His grandmother and he would spend weekends fishing at the pond as everything else in life would evolve. Then came surf fishing and the captain moved onto river fishing. Once the offshore charters began, that's where the real love and addiction came into play. After spending a lot of hours near and offshore, Captain Chad's friends and family began to tell him he should become a captain because it seemed to be his passion and something he was good at. He started running private charters for a few years and has now decided to go full-time and do what he loves the most. The captain wishes he had listened to his elders a long time ago, but he's sure that all of us can relate to that one way or another.
Techniques
Captain Chad fishes anything nearshore or offshore. From bottom fishing to trolling, live bait, dead bait, or artificial, it really all depends on the time of the year.
