The Crew of Hindsight Sportfishing
Capt. Brett Wilson
Capt. Brett Wilson is a second generation fisherman. His father had
a fishing charter boat out of Rock Harbor for over 20 years. He
started as a mate on his father's boat at the age of 10 years old.
He mated on many different boats, in many fisheries, gaining a
diverse knowledge of the ocean, the many species of fish, and how to
truely run a boat. At the age of 18, Brett received his captain's
license. With his license in hand, Capt. Brett headed to the Florida
Keys, where he furthered his career mating for some of the best
captains in the world.
In the Florida Keys, he had the opportunity to mate and captain
several boats. This allowed him to gain a whole new knowledge of a
distinctly different fishing environment.
To this day, Brett fishes over 300 days per year. During the winter
months, he captains fishing charters as well as sailfish tournament
teams. During the summer months, he is on the Hindsight in Cape Cod
running charters fishing for bluefin tuna, striped bass and
bluefish. When fall rolls around, Brett is a commercial fisherman
for giant bluefin tuna. Then it's back to Florida to start the
tournament sailfish season again!
Notable Achievements:

40 Top 3 Finishes in Sailfish / Dolphin Tournaments

Capt. Buddy Wilson continues to fish, running charters out of Rock Harbor with his son, Capt. Brett Wilson, aboard the "Hindsight".
Captain Mario Stark
Mario
is a 50 ton Masters licensed Captain. He is a third generation
fisherman and Captain Brett’s nephew.
Born and raised on Cape Cod, his life revolves around the ocean. He
began working on his Uncles charter boat as a young child and
through those experiences was shaped into the fisherman he is today.
Growing up, Mario spent his time as a sponsored surfer and fishing
the Cape.
Mario has worked for many of the boats down at the harbor over the
years and is proud to be working with his family. He attends the
Massachusetts Maritime Academy, majoring in marine safety science
and environmental protection.
Salt water runs through his veins, and if he is not in class, you
will surely find Mario on the ocean! Mario is known to have a never
ending smile on his face, and going the extra mile to make sure his
customers have the best experience possible aboard the Hindsight.
