Captain Derrick has a 100-ton captain's license with over 20 years fishing experience on Long Island. Growing up in Huntington on the North Shore I started working deck on the James Joseph. I moved out east and began a new career as an outboard technician at Gone Fishing Marina. On the side, I have been working deck and captaining for the famed Viking Fleet in Montauk as well as relief captain for the Grand Slam charter boat. I have taken all my experiences and skill to run my own charter boat now and put people on fish as I have done for many years. Book a trip with me and you won't be disappointed!
