Captain
Bill Kokis has fished the East Coast, Gulf Coast, Caribbean, Sea of Cortez, and
the Mediterranean Sea. Grandfather William Kokis was a lifelong
commercial fisherman and made his entire living off the Sea. The salt
runs deep with Captain Bill as well as having an avid knowledge of the
water. Bill has held a Master U.S. Merchant Marine Officer License for
nearly 10 years, and has been boating / fishing avidly since childhood.
Graduating / Majoring in Marine Biology gives him a scientific edge and a great
appreciation for our marine resources. He is also a good person, aside
from the comradery which comes naturally while fishing!

FishNut is equipped with PENN reels, and class matched rods to handle the best
fishing in Long Island Sound. If you prefer, bring your own personal
