Captain Jim and his wife, Carolyn, share a deep passion for fishing that brought them together over two decades ago in Montauk, NY. While Captain Jim has spent the past ten years captaining a six-pack boat, Carolyn often joined friends on fishing trips, gaining valuable experience alongside him. Over the last five years, they’ve realized their dream by launching their very own charter boat. With more than 35 years of combined expertise, they’ve explored fishing spots throughout the east end, both near the shore and offshore. Their love for fishing extends beyond their home waters, as they’ve enjoyed angling adventures on vacations in Florida, the Bahamas, Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, and beyond. Having competed in numerous tournaments, they’ve earned recognition for their catches of bluefish, striped bass, and large sharks. Captain Jim and Carolyn are excited to create wonderful memories through this new endeavor and look forward to welcoming you onboard. Expect a fantastic time with knowledgeable guides and memorable fishing experiences. The trips run smoothly, with great weather often accompanying the fun.
