Justin Cardinali

Though he considers the Navesink River his home river, Justin Cardinali is no stranger to Patcong Creek, having crabbed in the 2010, 2012 & 2013 tournaments as a crew member on the Little Orca. Unfortunately for Justin, he missed the 2011 tournament when the largest crab was bagged by the Little Orca.

With the Little Orca down with mechanical problems in 2014, Cardinali and Jay Corrigan purchased the 14′ Enabler to compete in the tournament. Though Captain Scott Fields from the Little Orca accompanied the Enabler crew in 2014, it did not yield a tournament victory.

Fields returned to the now-repaired Little Orca for the 2015 tournament, marking the first time Cardinali competed in the tournament on a different vessel than Fields. Does he have what it takes as the co-captain of The Enabler to earn his spot on the Assault on Patcong Creek trophy winner name plate?
