Sean Johnson

Member since May 2024 Fort Lauderdale, United States
Background
I have lived in South Florida my entire life and have been fishing since I was a kid. And while I have fished all over Florida, the Everglades is an area that Im truly passionate about. It's a magical place and one of my favorite places to be. With years of experience navigating the waters of the Everglades, I have the knowledge and experience to put customers on the fish and educate them on the amazing wildlife that the glades has to offer. As well as being a guide, I am also an avid tournament angler and complete in some of the largest tournament trails in Florida. I run a brand new 2025 Nitro Z-18 powered by a Mercury 150hp motor with a cruising speed of around 55mph. The boat is tournament ready with 4 new Lowrance Elite series graphs inluding live sonar, Minn Kota Ultrex trolling motor with spot lock and remote operation and so much more. On board you will find quality Lews spinning rod/reel combos. I always have a few extra on board to ensure there's no break in the fishing due to snagged lines or lost hooks. There is also a cooler filled with ice, water and gatorade, a first aid kit, auto inflatable life jackets, all fishing gear needed for your trip and plenty of dry storage area's. Whether you're a novice angler or a seasoned pro, I always strive to make sure you have an unforgettable day on the water.
Techniques
Live bait fishing (shiners) and artificial bait.
