Meet the captain
Capt. Alan Spangler
“My passion for fishing began when I was a child. My first job was working at a local bait and tackle shop. I then saved up enough money for my first boat in high school.
I took classes to earn my master captain's license. Every day I look forward to sharing my passion with my customers.”
