I'm Captain Chris, and fishing along the coast has been a part of my life since I was young. Growing up, I spent countless hours on the ocean and bay waters honing my skills. With over 35 years of personal fishing experience and 5 years working as a professional guide, I bring a wealth of knowledge to every trip. I'm easygoing and especially enjoy taking kids out on the water—I remember how excited I was to fish when I was their age. When you join me, you can look forward to making unforgettable memories, catching a variety of fish species, and maybe even landing your personal record catch! Depending on the length and type of trip, I might have a deckhand on board to assist. I've been happily married for many years and have four boys who share my passion for the outdoors, whether it’s fishing, hunting, or exploring nature. Chris and his deckhand Mike were fantastic! They guided us to some amazing fish and made the whole experience super fun and relaxed. They’re genuine, down-to-earth guys who really enhanced our trip. I can't wait to book another outing with them!
