Rhode Island Charter BoatsHere we find out about our five charter captains, what they do, their boats and fishing skills.Each captain is showcased below with a history, personal picture, and pictures of the boat.Below you will find the bio for each of our charter captains. There are also pictures from their 2007 charter season sprinkled throughout the site. Our captains will never take a charter out in bad weather if the clients don't want to do it, they don't necessarily like it either. Many charters will sail almost without regard for the conditions on the water, otherwise they keep your deposit if you don't sail. |

Aces
Wild Charters. Captain Earl of the Aces Wild has been fishing
for most of his life. Starting on the head boats in NY where he
payed $5 to go out (don't even want to think about how long ago that
must have been) he has been a fishing fanatic ever since. Lived
many years in Florida and fished the Atlantic Gulf coast off Miami for
many years, catching a wide variety of species. |

Adventure
RI Fishing Charters. Captain Chris of the Adventure has been
fishing in Rhode Island for 10 years. In that time he has
learned a lot about areas, tactics, and rigs that work. He has
developed his own plugs, trolling frames, daisy chains and other
terminal tackle which are used on charter trips to catch fish when
others are having less success. This captain is always
looking for new places to fish, new rigs or techniques, in order to have
the greatest possible number of ways to catch fish. On any given
charter you may be trolling, casting plugs, soft plastics, or deep
jigging with bucktails or diamond jigs-- whatever it takes to get fish
in the boat. The Adventure boat is a 33' Webber cove down east
sportfisher that can take up to 6 passengers. |

High
Hook Charters. Captain Walter Otis is a very easy going person
who loves to take families and children out fishing. His boat is
roomy and has a large, clean bathroom so Mom doesn't have to worry, she
can come along too. Walter does a lot of Flounder fishing trips
as these work best for families with small children. He also
fishes for stripers and blues. The High Hook boat is a 30'
Trojan sportfish design with a fly bridge, and can take a
maximum of 6 passengers. During the season Walter lives on board
his boat for a few months, docked at Jim's Dock in Jerusalem, RI. |

On The Rocks Charters. On The Rocks Charters specializes in
fly fishing and light tackle fishing Narragansett Bay and the RI south
shore. Captain Rene's expertise is in fishing structure, and Rhode
Island's rocky shoreline has plenty of it. Rene has fished
Narragansett bay for many years and is familiar with all its areas of
structure. He makes most of the files used for fly fishing on his
boat. His charter boat is a 21' Mako center console with
nothing sticking up to be in the way of casting. He can take a
maximum of 3 anglers when using light tackle spinning gear and 2 when
fly fishing. |

Snow Fly Charters. For captain Greg Snow, fishing is an
obsession. He fishes every chance he gets, whether its from his
boat, a friends boat, or from the beach, every spare moment is spent on
the passion of fishing. Greg is an expert fly fisherman, and can
cast a fly farther than most people can cast with a spinning outfit
(hard to believe, but it's true). He guides on Narragansett Bay
during May and early June, then moves out to Block Island and guides
from New Harbor on the island until the end of September. From
October to November he guides out of Jim's Dock in Jerusalem, RI.
Greg has fished many areas of the
world including Belize, Florida, yada yada. His boat is a 23' Seacraft center console. This vessel has an excellent ride in
rough water and is built very solidly, an extremely safe boat with many
advantages for the fly fisherman in there being very little for your fly
line to hang up on. Greg, Chris, and Earl will sometimes go out
fishing together when they have a day without a charter. |
