Captain Bob

Member since August 2023 Fort Walton Beach, United States
Background
Captain Bob served 32 years in the USAF. You can almost always find him on the water. When he's not on the water, he spends his time with family. The discussion at dinner is usually about a new technique they saw on YouTube or how they can find a new spot for fishing. Captain Bob is USCG certified and is also certified in CPR and first aid. While he can't guarantee what fish the Sea Gods will make available the day of your trip. His number one priority is to give his customers the safest, most enjoyable experience he can. Stories you can talk about with friends and family later.
Techniques
I enjoy all styles of fishing. Trolling for Wahoo is my favorite.
