MEET OUR CAPTAIN: My name is Captain Brad Muscoe. I am a United States Coast Guard Licensed Captain and trained in First Aid and CPR. I have been fishing the nearshore waters of Marquette for over 40 years, finding fishing to be both a great sport as well as the ultimate family escape. My chartering goal is to offer clients a safe, fun-filled experience that they will want to come back for year after year.

The Ella Bella has 2 Raymarine GPS/sonars (fishfinders), Raymarine VHF radio, Raymarine Autopilot, ICOM handheld VHF radio, Fish Hawk X4 Trolling Speed & Temp system, 2 HP Scotty Downriggers and many rod holders.
