What's up, y'all? I'm Captain James Craddock, but you're more than welcome to call me Jamesey Boy or just James. I would love for you to join me for a day on the water Sightseeing, Dolphin watching, Bird watching, and much more. I am a true native of the area, with 7+ generations of commercial fishing experience and being the fourth-generation captain/guide. I grew up on the water fishing pound nets and crab pots with my dad and even spent a summer on the trawl boat shrimping with my grandfather. All that to say, I love spending the day in the sun, especially on the water around my home. Safety and smiles are the most important things with me on the water.

    Great trip for the kids!

    2 hour morning with crabbing and fishing • 4 adults

    We very much enjoyed our trip with Captain James! He took us crabbing and fishing - the kids had a blast!! He’s very hands on and taught the kids all about measuring crabs and what fish they were going to be catching. He was just an overall really nice guy too - thanks Captain James!!

    best experience ever!

    2 Hr – Soundside sunset adventure • 5 adults

    Captain John was great! it was as if he was a part of my family for the evening! He took time to talk with us as he showed us around, and was able to get really close to the dolphins. we began the trip as strangers, we ended it becoming good friends! We will definitely book with Captain John again!
