Tom Hughes

Member since July 2018 Wanchese, United States
Background
Captain Tom Hughes has been fishing since he was big enough to hold a rod on his own. Six years ago he decided to turn his passion and hobby into a full-time job and started guiding customers. He's caught a lot of trophy-sized fish, but his proudest catch is a massive 100 lb Cobia. He loves socializing with his customers and getting to know them. A true outdoors fan, he's usually out before the sunrise – he hopes to share this love with every single guest that comes on board.
