About Capt Bob

Captain Bob has been fishing his whole life and is a very well rounded fisherman. His father was an avid fly fisherman who showed him the ropes at a very young age. He got his start with with the traditional Zebco 202 fishing for blue gill and large mouth bass. When his father thought the time was right, he taught Bob the fine art of fly fishing for trout and large mouth bass. It was not long before Bob bought his first boat and started fishing for rockfish on the Chesapeake Bay. He then moved to Ocean City, Maryland where he became a successful offshore mate earning his master captain’s license fishing primarily for marlin, tuna and shark.

While working in the Florida Keys on an offshore fishing boat, he discovered flats fishing and knew this was right up his alley. He then bought a house on Cudjoe Key where he immediately started doing his homework learning the flats and tides of the surrounding keys. After years of study, he decided the time was right and started up Double Haul Charters. He is a full-time guide.
