46. The Making of a Skillie Man with Captain John Galvin
Captain John Galvin knew he wanted to spend his life fishing at an early age. He began on the docks and Eastman's Bait and Tackle in Falmouth, Massachusetts working his way up to the Viking 72, El Diablo, where he puts his anglers on tuna, marlin, and, most importantly, a memorable experience.
