Captain Drew has fished all across the world, spending time in Vermont, Florida, Wyoming, New Zealand, and Hawaii. His fishing travels reveal themselves in the diversity of his Cape Cod trips: anglers can book a day offshore chasing Bluefin Tuna, head out for nearshore Stripers the next day, and then drift and wade the inshore flats for hungry Stripers to cap it all off.
Captain Drew splits his time between Chatham and northern Vermont with his wife Erika, daughter Isla, sons Zane and Reid, and hairy dawgs Bodie and Riggs.

We had an awesome time out there with Drew and Dawson! We were looking for bluefin tuna on artificial lures and fished hard off the Cape. The tuna were going crazy under birds. We got tight but unfortunately it wasn't to be. The Bluefin gotta win some days and can't wait to get back out there with these guys. Tackle was perfect and these guys know the area lick the back of their hand! –...

Cpt. Drew took my father, uncle, cousin, and I out for a four our trip and I couldn’t have been more impressed with his knowledge, professionalism, and spirit. He knew all the tricks to get us going, and within minutes, we had our first catch. We caught over 15 fish on our trip and brought a few home for dinner! Will be looking forward to booking him next year as well!

Great bass fishing continues with a big push of false albacore and bonito in local waters in the last week. We have started to have shorter fishable windows due to fall weather, but with plenty of bait and warm water temps, we have a lot of fishing left to do.

Couple shots. Tuna fishing continues to impress with all sizes available. Jig and bait bite with some topwater mixed in if you're lucky. Bass are around and we're a bit finicky this week with mild tides, bright sun, and warm water. False Albacore and Bonito are now being found in our local waters and fished with small epoxy jigs under birds. Truly the best time of year to be on the water when the weather cooperates.

Sure. Fishing has been really decent both inshore and offshore. Bluefin both giant and rec size to be had on bait/troll/spin locally. Bass transitioning from squid to sandeels and still productive on most tides under bird piles.
