Damian Estrada

Member since September 2024 Key Largo, United States
Background
Although new into the guiding/chartering business, i have been in the fishing/marine industry for over 6 years. I am the owner of JD Outdoor Adventures Bait&Tackle in Miami Fl, Key Largo Fl, and JD’s Marina Key Largo. i have been fishing since i could stand up on my own being rasied in the upper keys, driving boats since i was about 8 years and operating my own personal vessels since i was 16. i have well over a few thousand hours on the water. i spend most of my time in the Backwaters of the Upper Keys or heading west into Everglades National Park (Flamingo). Chasing Snook, Redfish, Tarpon, Trout, Jacks, Snapper and Grouper. Just around the corner we have plenty of reef fishing if the deep blue is your vibe! plenty of other species to chase from the patch reefs, to the drop off and the humps.
