About Captain Corder

Captain Anthony Corder has never met a stranger. That’s something he learned early from the Corder family. As a kid, he had the rare opportunity to travel the country with his larger-than-life father, Doyle Corder—the nation’s number one shotgun shooter four years in a row. Anthony was by his dad’s side, hunting and fishing anywhere the tournaments took them.

In his teens, Anthony discovered two big loves: fishing and music. He picked up his first guitar and never looked back. By his twenties, he was touring across the U.S., playing everything from country to funk and soul. Music runs in his veins.

Eventually, he moved off the stage and behind the mixing board. For the last 20+ years, he’s been a professional sound engineer, running sound for legends like Merle Haggard, Charley Pride, and many others. No matter where music took him, one thing stayed constant—fishing every chance he got.

After years of chasing fish on the Texas Gulf Coast and building a name for flounder, he earned his USCG Master 100-ton license and launched Hook South, blending his love for fishing, music, and connecting with people.

But life changes.

In 2024, Captain Corder followed a new calling north—to Pelican, Alaska. Trading bull reds and flounder for halibut, rockfish, lingcod, and salmon, he now guides unforgettable fishing trips in one of the most remote and beautiful places in the world. Whether you’re a family looking for your first big catch, a hardcore angler chasing trophies, or just wanting to experience the breathtaking Alaskan waters, Captain Corder will make sure you have the trip of a lifetime.

When he’s not fishing or running sound for concerts and festivals, he’s creating epic videos from his adventures so you can relive the memories—and prove those “fish stories” are 100% true.

Pray. Mix. Fish. Repeat.
