Captain Chris Oliver is a USCG licensed captain and the operator of Keepin' It Reel Sportfishing. Raised in Dutchess County, New York, Chris developed his passion for fishing early, quickly recognizing the world-class striped bass fishery that exists in the Hudson River.
By the age of five, Chris was fishing the Hudson as often as possible, and that early obsession grew into a lifetime of time on the water.
Captain Chris represents the UVT La Familia through his lifelong dedication to learning fisheries, refining tactics, and earning results across a wide range of species and conditions. From the Hudson River to Montauk and offshore tuna grounds, his passion and preparation make him a trusted captain within the UVT crew.
"Working with UVT Fishing is an honor. Everyone is working together to elevate everyone just like you would do for your family, hence La Familia! When first asked to be a part of La Familia I was excited to represent a product that I genuinely believed in and used on every trip, but honestly I thought it was just another product partner or prostaff position. I was incredibly wrong! Being a part of La Familia is exactly what it sounds like, you are part of the family, I felt that immediately. I am proud to be with La Familia!"
