Mike Delzingo

Member since July 2018 Boston, United States
Background
"Fishing is in my blood. Born and raised a fisherman, as are my children. Owning and operating a charter boat was my destiny." Captain Mike Delzingo has been fishing for four and a half decades. He's spent the past 32 years fishing saltwater right here in Boston harbor, learning the tricks of the trade and the taste of the local species. Captain Mike is also one of only a handful of local rod and reel commercial fishermen. Supplying fresh, local, sustainably caught seafood to restaurants and markets in the Boston area. Captain Brad is a chip off the old block! On board since he was just 11 days old. Brad was born and raised fishing right here in Boston harbor. Fishing is in his veins. Winning or placing high in many local tournaments. At 16 years old he set the IGFA WORLD RECORD for a shark he caught just 30 miles from port. At 18 years old, he was one of the youngest licensed captains in Boston. Now 23 years old, he has started his own guide service and runs the Fishbucket during the week. Captain Mike and Captain Brad will gladly show you the ropes and help you have a lot of fun on the blue waters of Boston. Accepting all major forms of payment including PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, Stripe, Tap To Pay, Cash and Credit cards on board the boat, and we never charge extra for Boston pickup, because we are actually in Boston! *Please remember the first mate works ONLY FOR TIPS!, and a 20% cash tip is not only customary, it's required! The first mate works HARD. Both before you arrive, and long after you're gone to prep the boat and all equipment to help you have the best chance of success. If you cannot tip the mate 20%, please don't book the trip! (I can't believe I have to put this in writing)
