SeaBros Fishing Podcast - Fishing Stories, Tactics, and Interviews from Top Captains, Mates, and Outdoorsmen from Across the World

Captain Jesse Martello and Chris Gergley - "Think Big"

Season 5 Episode 74

Thank you for tuning into the SeaBros Fishing Podcast!

On this episode of the podcast it was our pleasure to host long time friend and fellow fisherman, Captain Jesse Martello. Joining him, another returning guest and owner of L.T Marine Products, Captain Chris Gergley.

We have known Jesse since we started our charter fishing business over 20 years ago. He is an incredible person, amazing fishermen, and is one of the most mechanically gifted humans on the planet. If it is broken, Jesse can fix it. He has decades of experience in the automotive industry, and has translated those skills to his passion of boats and fishing. Jesse runs a charter business of his own "Think Big Sportfishing" out of Mystic, CT. 

Jesse and Chris actually met through us, and became close friends quickly; being that they are from the same area. Since then, Jesse collaborates with Chris on designing and testing products for L.T, and Chris works with Jesse on the charter boat.

In this conversation we discuss the importance of preparation, time on the water, and the amount of dedication it takes to become a consistent charter fisherman. We talk about similar methods we share when tuna fishing on Stellwagen Bank, and we also talk canyon fishing tactics. We also spend a bit of time discussing manufacturing products for one of the most abusive environments and against some of the world's hardest fish to catch. 

We hope you enjoy this as much as we did!

Stay Tight,
Bryan and Taylor
