Captain
George Vergakis

Member since May 2022 East Massapequa, United States
Background
Capt. George runs trips out of Montauk aboard a 38’ Luhrs during the summer months. Then after working his way down the east coast he will spend the winter in Fort Myers fishing the Gulf of Mexico. Montauk waters are known for Striped Bass, Sharks, and Tuna, and he will show you how to catch them, whether you're bottom fishing, trolling, or jigging. As an experienced fisherman, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!
