About Captain Bob Belekewicz 

United States Coast Guard Licensed Master,
Towing Certified

I have enjoyed every moment I have spent on the water since my very humble beginnings using a 9.9 hp Evinrude on rental boats in Boston Harbor to my current equipment, fishing the waters of Cape Cod and the Islands.   

My training began after purchasing my first boat, jointly with Lemke - a 16’ Runabout.  I  began my formal coursework with the United States Power Squadron and attained the rank of Advanced Pilot.  I completed additional coursework at the Massachusetts Maritime Academy and at New England Maritime.  I sat for the Coast Guard test with New England Maritime and attained the level of Licensed Master. 

In addition to my formal training, I have traveled and fished extensively throughout North America.  From Pike, Lake Trout and Grayling in the Northwest Territories; to Salmon and Halibut in Alaska and Washington States; to Tarpon and Mahi Mahi in the Florida Keys, my appreciation and respect for the sport of fishing has grown.  Most importantly, because I have fished with many other Charter Captains, I have learned how to make your day more enjoyable and what to avoid.  For example, I do not sail in bad weather.  I insist on speaking to my clients the evening before a scheduled charter to ensure that the next day’s weather forecast is favorable for the type of fishing trip requested.  In marginal weather, I will leave the decision to sail up to the party, or I may recommend a different type of trip less effected by wind. 

My philosophy of chartering is simple:  the safety, comfort and enjoyment of my passengers, first; catching fish, second.  

Aboard ship, each person is expected to handle his or her own pole.  Depending on the passenger’s level of experience, I am happy to offer instructions or encouragement, as needed.   

My equipment is very user-friendly and even people who have never fished before can master the technique in a very short time. 

And because of my wife and her dear friend, I do offer “Princess Fishing”, for those ladies who do not want to bait their own hooks nor remove fish.  

All fish landed that are of legal size and within established limits may be kept by the party.  I encourage you to take whatever fish you will use and will be happy to release the rest to fight another day.  I am not a Commercial fisherman.  I do not sell fish, and I do not encourage this practice by my customers, either.  Fish that are kept are immediately  iced down and are in top condition for fileting.  I am expert with a filet knife and will be happy to take care of your catch.  For small to moderate amounts of fish, I will filet the fish on board during the return trip.  However, for large catches, I may make other arrangements to take care of your fish and meet you later with the filets. 

Last, but not least, I enjoy cooking fish.  I truly want you to enjoy your catch and I am happy to share with you my favorite recipes and techniques for the type of fish you catch.  (see “Favorite Recipes”)
