Travis is a fully licensed fishing guide in Maryland. Additionally, he's a native of Southern Maryland and has been fishing these waters since he was a child. He's a full-time teacher, and has been teaching for over 20 years and enjoys sharing his passion and knowledge of the Chesapeake Bay. His fishing adventures are focused on helping you become a better angler while enjoying a wonderful day with your friends and family on the Bay. It will be a “hands-on” or a “hands off” light tackle fishing experience. It's totally up to the anglers to decide. You'll have the unique opportunity to have a personalized experience. ''Whatever it takes'' is his motivation to catch fish or to simply spend time on the water having fun. Make your reservation today.
