Like father, like son, 1st mate Jack Leverone has spent his entire youth honing his fishing skills in Kona. It has been his goal to be a world-class fisherman since he could say the word “fish”. One of his early goals was to catch a shark, and he caught a sand shark weighing approximately 100 pounds when he was 10. The shark was released at the end of the battle. Now at 21, Jack has accumulated numerous great fishing tales and several ‘firsts’ that many people never achieve in a lifetime, including an IGFA junior world record for the 547 lb. thresher shark that he caught in 2014. He has already accumulated much experience as a deckhand, at leadering and gaffing big fish, and is already mastering the art of filleting a fish. Jack has also gained experience as the captain of his 15′ Boston Whaler, aptly named The All Jacked Up.
