Meet the
Captains
Captain Richard "Dick" Burhoe
Captain Dick, like most locals, grew up and learned to fish at an early age,
starting as a charter mate aboard the Dixie, Captained by the late Bobby Woods,
fishing for Bluefin tuna. As he grew he worked on offshore fishing trawlers and scallopers always learning about the ocean and what she had to offer. Now late
in life Captain Dick has evolved into a charter captain which allows him to
share what he has learned with his daily customers. Captain Dick is a local of
Provincetown and has been fishing the waters of the North Atlantic since the age
of 12. Come fishing with
Captain Dick and be regaled about the good old days
while making some special memories of your own for years to come.
Captain Jared Burhoe
Captain Jared, like
his father, started mating at the age of 12 aboard a local party fishing boat,
setting out for larger species whenever the chance arose. Becoming a captain at
19, Captain Jared began to operate his own charter boat, run local party fishing
boats and
whale watch boats, as well as fish for commercially for Giant Bluefin Tuna
in the slower parts of the
season. At 30 years old, Captain Jared has 18 years of fishing experience and
has fished along the entire eastern seaboard from Maine to Florida. With a young
family, Captain Jared has been less available to charter recently than he would
like. Although he still finds time to run a majority of the early and late season charters,while helping out as
needed during the busier summer months.
Captain Jared was
contracted to run another boat during the "2008 Oaks Bluff Monster Shark
Tournament". His boat finished 2nd overall with a 379 lbs. Thresher shark while
releasing over 50 sharks in the 2 day tournament.
