About Us
The Way We Do It!
The Captain
Captain Lou has over 30 years of experience fishing in the waters off the east end of Long Island. Since his teenage years he has been fishing and guiding anglers in pursuit of Striped Bass, Bluefish, Fluke, Sea Bass, Blackfish and Albies. His passion for fishing and the outdoors is demonstrated through his effort to provide a fun, safe, and memorable experience for his clients. Captain Lou holds a United States Coast Guard license for the past 20 years and is a member of the Montauk Boatmen and Captain association. His experience in the waters off Montauk makes him one of the premier Captains on the East End of Long Island.
The Boat
Gianna Helena is a 31-foot custom built Steigercraft pilothouse powered by twin 300 hp Yamaha outboards and can fish 1–4 anglers in comfort. This Pilothouse style vessel is perfectly suited to handle the inshore and offshore waters off Montauk and Block Island. With twin outboard power the Gianna Helena can cruise comfortably at 30 knots. This means she can reach the fishing grounds in half the time of most other boats, providing our anglers more time fishing. The boat offers a wide spacious deck, ample comfortable seating, and pilothouse protection from the elements. Gianna Helena carries the latest Simrad electronics, Radar, marine radio, and all US Coast Guard safety equipment. We take pride in her appearance and have her professionally cleaned and detailed on a regular basis.
