CAPTAIN & BOAT

Meet The Captain / J.T. Roehrs

After finishing school, J.T. moved to Hatteras, NC, where he began his career as a professional fisherman. Four years later, he relocated to Nags Head and continued fishing out of Pirate’s Cove, spending many seasons as a charter boat mate among the fleet.

Over the past several years, Captain J.T. has expanded his experience far beyond the Outer Banks, fishing up and down the East Coast from Ocean City, Maryland to Palm Beach, Florida, as well as internationally in Costa Rica, Bermuda, and the Abacos. His years on the water have built a reputation for skill, dedication, and a true love of sportfishing that he brings to every trip.
