Captain John Ford has been fly fishing New England's water for most of his life. John has spent the last 15 yrs of his 40yr life making Casco Bay and the Gulf of Maine his home. The backbone of his business was built on fishing striped bass in the clear shallow waters of Casco Bay. After years of pursuing the small bluefin tuna of Cape Cod, he has pioneered the fly fishery for tuna along Maine’s coast and it has become a personal obsession, creating and evolving patterns and techniques to pursue this great gamefish.
From chasing stripers to pursuing bluefins--Maine has a beautiful, unique and intimate fishery like no other along the East Coast. Capt. John also hosts many groups per year to exotic destinations around the world.
"Fishing every imaginable fly line out there Airflo has become the standard for success on my boat, I’m determined to talk someone into developing a switch rod that can handle the demands of bluefin tuna, maybe the master 'Mr. Rajeff' can put his skills to the test in this department.."- Capt. John Ford
