The Captain
|
Casey Tackett is a U.S. Coast Guard licensed Captain. After serving in the Air Force for 16 years and supporting his wife in her 24 year Air Force career, Casey is finally able to achieve his dream. He has a passion for catfishing and dreams of catching a record breaking catfish. You will quickly learn that Casey is a man of integrity and enjoys sharing knowledge and having good conversations about the things he loves. He might not be into football or any sport involving a ball, but he can talk fishing and hunting all day. Yup, you can tell his wife is writing this about him too. HAHA I jest but it is true. I would say I write these things because I am biased but that isn't where this comes from. He has proven and displayed his ability to make people feel comfortable and fully enjoy the time on the boat with him time and time again.

A little history about Casey. He was raised in small town Ohio and joined the Air Force as an aircraft mechanic. He traveled the world with the Air Force for 16 years until he was medically separated from the military in 2011 out of Little Rock, AR. The family moved to Athens, OH in 2012 for his wife's (yes, that is me) military move. This put him closer to family and brought him back to his roots of country living. This is where he was really able to connect with his passion and fish the Ohio River and travel around to various places. Of those places, Watts Bar Lake was his favorite. Fast forward through another military assignment to Tampa, FL. This is where Cynthia (I) expected him to fall in love with salt water fishing. As it turns out Watts Bar and catfish were still tugging his heartstrings so here we are in Tennessee at the lake he loves.
