Capt. Mike Russell (right) owner and operator of Chubasco Charters. Capt. Mike a seventh generation Bahamian, comes from a long line of seafaring captains. His father was a seaman for many years, both of his grandfathers were boat captains and one of his great grandfathers captained a three mast sailing schooner for many years hauling freight between the Islands.

Captain Mikes first love of the sea was racing sailboats. Before settling down to his charter fishing career, he raced for many years in International Events and represented the Bahamas in two Olympic Games. A competitor by nature Capt. Mike takes pride in his fishing achievements and the many fishing tournaments that he has won.
