Captain Curt Shoults is a Master 100 Ton who has dedicated over 45 years to perfecting the art of deep water fishing on Oregon's coast. His intimate knowledge of these waters is unmatched, consistently producing 20lb lingcod, with 30+ pounders caught regularly.
Together with his wife Anette, Captain Curt handcrafts custom tackle—flutter jigs, shrimp flies, lead fish, blade baits, and copper pipe jigs—each piece designed specifically for the unique conditions of Charleston's deep waters.
Every charter is limited to six passengers, ensuring an intimate, personalized experience. This is not a party boat. This is serious fishing for serious anglers who appreciate excellence.
