“I love what I do for a living and I try to make it show with each trip”
Some of my earliest memories are with my father on a sailboat and fishing with my grandfather.
I come from a long heritage of sailors and fisherman and have spent a lifetime honing my seamanship to give you a world-class experience.
Providing a trip you will remember for a lifetime is what Tenacious Charters is all about.
Whether you’re an experienced fisherman seeking the trip of a lifetime or a family looking to enjoy an exciting day on the water, I look forward to making sure you have a productive, safe, and enjoyable trip.

I grew up casually fishing in Minnesota, never thinking of a fishing career.
But after finding my way to Alaska in 2016, I’ve been charter fishing on and off since then.
I help answer calls when Brad is on the water, and work on many behind-the-scenes business tasks.
You may find me joining Brad and others on the water whenever I can, keeping my deckhand skills sharp.
I look forward to helping make sure your group has a terrific trip with Tenacious Charters!
