Captain: Bob Candopoulos
Captain Bob Candopoulos, owner of the Saltwater Safari Company and skipper of the 53-foot Legend is licensed by the U.S. Coast Guard as Master of Vessels up to 100 Gross Tons. Captain Bob has a wealth of experience gained through his 37 years of chartering out of Seward. He was the first Seward fishing guide to realize and explore the potential of the long-range fishing possibilities that areas like Montague Island and Middleton Island have to offer and has many historical catches to his credit. His pioneering efforts opened the door to help make Seward, Alaska one of the top sport-fishing destinations in the world.
Captain Bob is heralded as one of the most sought-after fishing guides in Alaska and has been featured on numerous outdoor television programs, and in numerous articles and publications throughout his extensive guiding career. He is also the founder of the Armed Services Combat Fishing Tournament, an annual event that hosts over 200 members of the U.S. Armed Services to a day of fishing each season.
Captain Bob is also considered the pioneer of Alaska's Salmon Shark fishery. He has guided over 1,100 salmon shark landings to his credit and has worked extensively with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, the Virginia Institute of Marine Science, and Scripps Oceanographic Institute, to better understand the migratory patterns and physiology of this northern cousin to the Great White Shark.
Captain Bob has spent more time fishing and exploring this area than any other fishing guide in Alaska. He has made guiding anglers his life career and enjoys his time on the water sharing his many stories with his guests. If a truly experienced guide is what you’re looking for, look no further, because you won’t find one.
