Member since August 2017 Virginia Beach, United States
Background
I grew up fishing the Chesapeake Bay and Atlantic Ocean from a young age. I don't have a favorite fish to target, honestly. It depends upon the season and what fishery is hot at the time.
Techniques
We are professionals at what we do. We specialize in year round offshore, inshore and nearshore artifical and live/dead bait fishing.... we have trips that are designed for every level of experience!
