Jeshua Kavanaugh

Member since January 2024 Daytona Beach, United States
Background
Hello, my name is Jeshua and I am a full-time fishing guide. I specialize in backcountry fishing - Redfish, Snook, Tarpon, and Trout. Living locally allows me to spend time on the water regularly, staying on top of fish patterns and water conditions so I can put my clients in the best position to catch quality fish. I am a Native Floridian, a lifelong angler, and a father of four. I enjoy spending time in God's creation and love sharing my passion for the outdoors with others
Techniques
My goal is to ensure my clients’ expectations are met so I tailor my fishing techniques based on the client’s experience level and what they would like to target. Whether you are an experienced angler who wants to sightfish the flats or it’s your first time fishing, Lucky Spot Charters has you covered. We utilize top of the line light tackle spinning gear using live bait or artificials.
