Meet Kevin "Catterman" Expert guide of The Catterman Adventures

About The Captain

As a child, Kevin was always fascinated by the ocean and the creatures that call it home. He spent hours fishing off the shore, developing a deep passion for the sport. As he grew older, he began to document his fishing adventures on YouTube, sharing his knowledge and experiences with the world.


Kevin's natural talent and dedication to fishing soon caught the attention of sponsors, who recognized his potential as an angler. But for him, there was still something missing. He wanted to share his love for fishing with others in a more direct and personal way.


That's when Kevin decided to start his own fishing charter business, The Catterman Adventures. With a focus on catching the largest predators that visit the eastern shore - giant Sting Rays and Sharks - he has quickly become known as the go-to guide for thrill-seekers and avid anglers alike.


But Kevin's passion for fishing isn't just about the catch. He believes that every fishing trip is an opportunity to connect with nature and create memories that will last a lifetime. He takes pride in providing his clients with an unforgettable experience, and his enthusiasm and expertise make each trip an adventure to remember.


 

These fishing trips usually start in the evenings after 6 PM EST and run anywhere till midnight or even 7 AM. When you book with us we put out several different rods and baits to ensure that our night is filled with fish-catching fun. All sharks, stingrays, and other fish caught during the charter will be primarily handled by the Guide himself and his first mates. Some of the species you will encounter include Sandbar (Brown), Sand tigers, Dusky, Spinner, & Blacktip sharks, as well as Smoothhound dogfish (Some species are federally protected and must be caught & released as quickly as possible). We also have the chance of hooking into Bull & Atlantic sharpnose sharks, as well as skates and all kinds of stingrays.

 

All fishing gear & bait will be provided, we just recommend wearing long sleeve shirts, beach pants, and beach shoes on your trip (and don't forget the bug repellent). Amenities include ice-cold water, a Mosquito-proof enclosure, comfortable beach chairs, and High-Quality images. Video add-ons available (ask me!)

 

All active anglers (16+ and older) will be required to have a Tidal Fishing License ($10-20 - Delaware trips) or a Saltwater registry (Free - New Jersey)
