Get to Know Me
Having grown up on Hatteras Island, Captain Johnny started fishing on his family's boat by himself at the ripe age of 10. His first job cleaning charter boats would later help him transition into the charter fishing industry. Paying his dues cleaning boats and riding along on charter boats, he was offered his first job as a full-time mate offshore at the age of 14. Having mated for four years during high school, he gained a lot of skills and experiences most teenagers would not have. Fishing with multiple different captains, he learned many different aspects of the charter fishing industry and is now prepared to run his own business and make his own wake in life!
