Meet the Captain
Growing up in south Florida, I started fishing at a young age and that is when my passion for fishing began. I have been fishing the waters of the Florida Keys for over 25 years. I enjoy seeing the smiles on people's faces when they catch their very first fish of any size. I enjoy fishing for all species of fish. If one technique is not working well we’ll try something else to catch the fish for our guest.
