About Capt. John McMurray of One More Cast Fishing Charters
For twenty years Capt. McMurray has been the owner and primary operator of “One More Cast” Charters. 

He runs trips on both the skiffs and the Contenders, pretty much every day the weather allows, from mid-April through December – with the notable exception of every other Sunday, which he sets aside to take his 10 year old son fishing (AKA “Bro-day”).

As is the case with any small business owner he is the chief maintenance officer, booking agent, mechanic, electrician, accountant etc.

After his career in the Coast Guard he was the Executive Director of the Coastal Conservation Association New York,  then Director of Grants Programs at the Norcross Wildlife Foundation in New York before becoming a full time fishing guide.

Capt. McMurray is a well known and well published outdoor writer, notable for his work on fisheries conservation issues. He's written for  Reel-Time.com, Saltwater Sportsman and Sport Fishing Magazine, and has had feature articles and/or photography published in On The Water, Saltwater Fly Fishing, Tide Magazine, Nor’east Saltwater, Newsday and the New York Times.
