Captain Bob has been commercial fishing in Virginia Beah since high school working on many boats before purchasing Catherine C. She was the first boat to shrimp in Virginia waters. Reigning supreme off our coast, she casts her big green net while an impressive array of birds trail behind to "help with the shrimping." Catherine C is named after his wife.

"I have been fishing full time for over 20 years . I’ve traveled to all of the fishing tournaments from the Dominican Republic to New Jersey. I started shrimping before it was open to the public with “experiment permits” 6 years ago.
My boat is named after my mother. A strong person for whom I am grateful.
It’s always been something I love, being on the water and making a living off of the water’s bounty! Its hard work with strict rules but we do our best to make it work."

"Captain Bob and I started the local shrimping here around 2017. I've been fishing since 1975. I lived in Broad Bay by the Lynnhaven River and have fished out of Rudee Inlet, Lynnhaven and Cape Charles different times of the year fishing for Croaker, Shrimp, Trout, Bluefish and Shad. Brenda B is named after my wife."

"I have been fishing for 35 years and still love it!
I grew up in Reedville VA working on my father’s workboats. He taught me the tricks of the trade over the years.
I’ve fished all over the bay and mid ocean for crabs, conchs, shrimp and fish.
My workboat is named after my wife, Erinn."

“I grew up in Matthews County, Gwynn’s Island and still live there. I have been working on the water all my life and I have had this boat, Island Pride II, since 2008.
I have been coming down to Virginia Beach forever at different times of the year for seasonal catches."

"I grew up on Gwynn’s Island and have been working on the water for as long as I can remember. I have owned two great boats, one an old wooden workboat named Pamela J and the current boat the Hannah Carol which is named after my daughter."
