Member since May 2023 Oak Hill, United States
Background
Having grown up around Mosquito Lagoon, I fell in love with sight fishing for Redfish from a young age. I am passionate about putting my clients in situations where they get to interact with the fish before they catch it. Spotting a Redfish, casting to it, and watching it eat is one of the most exciting scenarios in inshore fishing. Providing a fun and exciting day for my clients is my biggest priority and I look forward to fishing with you soon.
Techniques
Chasing redfish in skinny water is my specialty. I also love targeting tarpon, snook and trout. I offer fly, light tackle and live bait charters.
