Joe Schaumburg

Member since May 2022 Newport, United States
Background
For Captain Joe, there's something magical about being on the ocean; the experiences he's had on the water are some of the most memorable and vivid memories of his entire life. He believes, 'the ocean humbles, teaches, challenges, and rewards...sometimes all at the same time!' He has spent his entire life on the water, not only fishing, but kayaking, snorkeling, racing sailboats, and more. He's fished all over the West Coast for numerous species and enjoyed the challenge of the hunt and especially the table fare of freshly-caught seafood. It's Captain Joe's goal to provide a memorable experience on the ocean that is safe and fun. He enjoys meeting new people and sharing what he knows about catching fish off the Oregon coast. One of his favorite experiences taking people out on the ocean is seeing them land their first Salmon, Halibut, or whatever kind of fish they're chasing. He's comfortable working with all ages and experience levels and will work hard to get you on the fish and make sure you have a great time. After four very successful seasons at the helm of Good Time Charlie, Captain Joe is excited to start his fifth season off the Oregon Coast!
