Captain Jim and his wife Carolyn share a deep passion for fishing, a bond that started over 20 years ago in Montauk, NY. While Captain Jim has spent the past ten years captaining a six-pack, Carolyn often joined friends on fishing trips, steadily gaining the skills and knowledge needed to launch their own business. Over the last five years, their dream has become a reality with the launch of their very own charter boat.
With a combined experience exceeding 35 years, they possess extensive local insights, fishing both inshore and offshore throughout the East End. Their love of fishing extends beyond home waters, as they’ve enjoyed angling adventures in Florida, the Bahamas, Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, and wherever an ocean calls.
They have competed in numerous fishing tournaments, earning top placements and victories with species such as bluefish, striped bass, and large sharks. Captain Jim and Carolyn are excited to create unforgettable experiences through their new venture and warmly welcome you to join them on the water.
