Richard Hastings

Islamorada, Forenede Stater
50+ anmeldelser
A New Hampshire native originally, Captain Richard spent years fishing the Colorado and Roaring Fork Rivers, even guiding there from 2014 to 2017. He moved down to Florida in 2015 and spent so much time on the productive inshore waters of the Everglades, that he decided to start his own business. A specialist in sight fishing, he loves teaching newcomers the tricks of the trade, and loves nothing more than seeing customers reel in the fish they've always dreamed of.

    Rich is awesome!

    Solnedgang Damefisk og Atlantisk permit • 2 voksne • 1 barn

    After several charter issues during my week in the keys i booked Rich for a final evening of trying to scratch off a Tarpon of my bucket list. He did that within a few minutes of leaving the dock BUT that is not why I would recommend him. He is extremely passionate about his fishery, he asked what I wanted out of the trip as well as letting me his expectations, he was great coaching me in the techniques that work in this fishery vs what I know from a lifetime of personal experience. In my opinion he is in the perfect zone of having many years of experience but yet not being burned out from the grind of a charter Captain. If I ever make it back and do a charter Rich will be my first call!

    Rich was awesome. I told him I was interested in crossing off catching a tarpon from by bucket list and within 15 minutes at our first stop I was able to put two boat side. You can tell Rich cares a lot about putting his clients on fish and making sure they have a great time doing so and is super knowledgable. If I come back this way I will definitely be booking another trip with Rich.

    Perfect inshore trip

    Halvdagstur • 2 voksne

    Rich was an absolutely incredible guide! He was extremely knowledgeable of the area and put us in some great spots to get on tarpon, bonefish, snook, permit, jacks, and barracuda. he’s also a great and patient instructor for fly fishing and explained very well the difference between freshwater vs saltwater techniques with heavier tackle. His demeanor the entire trip was positive and encouraging and his passion for what he does and being out on the water is infectious. 10/10 will book another trip with Rich the next time we come down!

    Captain Rich and Tito were the best. Seriously stop looking for another charter in the area and book with Rich. We let him know we were after a Permit and he put us on the fish. Caught the fish of a lifetime and will be back! Thank you very much captain Rich!!

Hvad bider på krogen med Captain Rich Hastings i Islamorada

Sergentfisk begynder at dukke op, nogle gange i store stimer. Multemigrationen bringer Stillehavssejlfisk tæt på kysten, sammen med de sidste Sortfinnede tun. Dette er også et godt tidspunkt for Plettet trommefisk og Rød trommefisk i de lavvandede områder.
