And Boat
Captain Bobby Jenkins grew up fishing the Bay and as a child he was a common site in the helmsman's
chair bringing the "Wella Wella" home after a day of fishing with his Dad; Mister J (Bob Jenkins).
Captain Bobby has fished the Bay and Rappahannock River for the past 30 years and always knows
where the fish are biting best. Mister J, his father, is an old salt who's 50 years of experience is hard to
beat when the fish are slow to bite. During the fall Rockfish season, the two Jenkins work as a team
and their 80+ years of combined experience shows. You'll always feel like your at home fishing with
either of these men and you'll get a kick at the antics that go on between them when they fish together.
Captain Jenkins believes in making every trip one to remember and will do as much or as little for you
as you want to make sure your trip is enjoyable.
Our boat is a 1966 28' Edward Norton Bay Built which was built out of Broad Creek in Deltaville,
VA. She's a double hulled plywood and Juniper planked boat powered by a 1966 327 corvette
engine. She started out life as "Robbie" but because my Dad, (Mister J) found her and enjoyed her so
much, we now call her "Mister J's Pleasure". Though we think she's pretty, she's also a workhorse that
just plain calls the fish in. She's got a clean stand up bathroom, heated cabin and curtains for winter
fishing, saltwater washdown, AM/FM cassette, and a full compliment of electronics to get out on the
fish and back again.
