About the Captain


Trophy Blue Catfish Guide Captain Chuck is a U.S. Coast Guard Licensed Captain & CPR/First Aid Certified

Captain Chuck

He has been fishing the rivers and lakes of Western Virginia for 20 years. Most recently focusing his fishing on the James River in Hopewell, VA for trophy blue cats.

Being able to recall the thrill of his first citation blue cat catch, he wants to be able to share with you this passion and excitement of reeling in your first trophy blue cat!

All reels and rods are inspected and updated in order to make sure you don’t lose the ‘BIG ONE’. All Safety Equipment is constantly maintained and updated as required by the U.S. Coast Guard.
