Captain Mark has been fishing for over 30 years. His ongoing passion on the water eventually led him to a full-time career as a commercial fisherman and private boat captain. Spending about 270 days a year offshore on average for the last 15 years , Mark has earned a reputation as one of the more proficient high liners in the northeast. Mark was recently featured in “In The Bite” magazine as one of the “Top Young Guns Of Sportfishing in 2018.” He is also one of the top pro staff team members for Penn Tackle, Simrad, Momoi, Costa Del Mar, and Deep Ocean Apparel.

He has caught well over 300 bigeye tuna in the northeast canyons. For over 20 years Mark has been helming top-producing vessels like “Canyon Runner,” “Reel Action,” “Rebel”, and is currently at the helm of the fishing vessel “One Love.”

Mark is an active owner and innovator at Broadbill Fisheries which is a Long Island New York based outfitting company specializing in offshore tackle products and boat outfitting. His products are made for the long haul and designed for the serious tournament fishermen. For more than 2 decades he has designed and built tens of thousands of spreader bars of various types and will discuss the ins and outs of these products.

Mark has also presented publicly at several other major fishing seminar events, including the Canyon built Runner Seminar series where he still presents annually. Canyon fishing has always been one of Mark’s biggest passions, and he has offered to share his knowledge and fishing adventure to help connect more people with more big fish!
