Meet Captain John Morley

Captain John Morley is the captain behind Black Wolf Outfitters, bringing 23 years of fishing experience and a lifelong connection to the water to every trip. As a third-generation fishing guide, John grew up around the fishing industry and was inspired by his father, a merchant marine officer. He has been fishing since he was a kid and genuinely enjoys getting people outdoors and helping them experience the excitement of fishing. His friendly personality and passion for teaching make every trip personal, welcoming, and enjoyable.

As a Pulaski, NY fishing guide, John knows the local waters and the seasonal patterns that make Northern New York fishing special. He fishes the Oswego River, Little Salmon River, Big Salmon River, North and South Sandy Creeks, and Black River near Dexter, NY. John adjusts his approach to the conditions and targets, using techniques such as plug fishing, back trolling, and float fishing. His focus on hospitality, instruction, and putting guests in the best position to enjoy their day makes Black Wolf Outfitters a great choice for beginners, experienced anglers, and family-friendly fishing charters in Pulaski, NY.

What sets Captain John apart is his love of teaching. Rather than simply putting guests on the water, he takes the time to explain techniques and help anglers understand how to fish these local rivers. Every trip is an opportunity to learn something new, enjoy the scenery, and create a memorable experience. Whether you're chasing salmon during the fall run or targeting steelhead and brown trout through the colder months, John brings local knowledge and enthusiasm to every charter.

Your adventure takes place aboard a 17-foot Fish Rite drift boat, designed for exploring the area's rivers and getting anglers into productive fishing water. The boat can accommodate up to four guests and provides an intimate way to experience the scenery and action of Northern New York. All fishing gear, including rods, reels, tackle, lures, and bait, is provided. Step aboard, settle in, and let Captain John guide you through a day of river fishing with Black Wolf Outfitters.
