The Captain
Captain Doug Blakeslee has been fishing the Chesapeake Bay ever since he moved to Maryland 18 years ago.
He was tutored by his father in-law Captain 'Nick' Nicholson who owned the Evie-K since 1979.
Captain 'Nick' fished the Bay for 50 years before passing away in February 2001. Captain Doug is now applying all he has learned to keep the Evie-K and fishing in the family.

The Boat
Evie-k is a classic 40'x12' wooden Bay built. She was built in 1969 and has been superbly maintained through the years. A 318 Chrysler powers her through the Bay. Her lay out is spacious which makes fishing 6 people pleasant and comfortable. The cabin has hot and cold running water, a dinette, a stand up head, and a v berth.
Fishing Area
Evie-k is kept in Annapolis on Mill Creek. Hacketts Point is just outside the Creek. This area is a good spot for White Perch, Hardhead, Spot, and Rockfish. The Chesapeake Bay Bridge is a short run and is home to Rockfish, Bluefish, Sea Trout, and others. Farther North the Bay has many lumps and shoals to provide a wide verity of locations to try. When we head south Tollies is one of the premier bottom fishing spots in the Upper Chesapeake Bay. Even farther south is a place we locals call the "Hill". The Hill is where we chum for Rockfish and for the most part have good success.

Attractions
There are many restaurants with in an hour or two boat ride to make a nice day on the Bay for friends or clients. Fourth of July fireworks, Blue Angles, world class sail boat racing, and powerboat racing all are short rides and make great day trips.
