I'm a quiet 43 year-old resident of Tobago with lots of fishing experience. Fishing is something I have always done – when I was a lad, it kept getting me in trouble with my mother, because I always ran away to fish! Fortunately, I have now made fishing my profession. It's all about being on the water having fun and making sure that my customers are happy at the end of their fishing day.

    Full day trip on the flats

    Full Day Trip • 2 adults

    Kester is a very knowledgeable and capable captain that cares passionately about the fishery in Tobago. He work hard to put us on fish while also giving us a greater understanding of the problems he faces around the island such as over fishing by the commercial fisherman, pollution and global warming .We had a stellar day boating numerous large bone fish and saw several large tarpon and permit. It was a pleasure to fish with him in such a beautiful place. I would highly recommend a day out on the water with this gentleman, a outing you won’t soon forget. Hoping I can get back soon and do it again!

    Reported catch:
    Bonefish
    Permit
    Tarpon

    Kester's expertise

    Full Day Trip • 1 adult

    Kester is an amazing guide and great guy. The fishing was hard and even Kester was astonished by the lack of fish on the flats. My advice for anyone looking for a Slam is to not go to Tobago in December! Kester tells me that July is the time for inshore slams. His boat will not meet your expectations but he will exceed them. Fish with Kester.

    Reported catch:

    Great trip. Caught a barracuda and three nice Kingfish. Kester and Tyrone were great.

    The condition wasn´t very good, Kester did a good job though, a nice guy with lots of knowledge about flyfishing for the bonefish, permits etc. Good eyes! He spotted fish I wasn´t even able to see them after he pointed them out.... Give me some good advice for the fishing by my own aswell, really appriciate that! Thanks Kester! // Martin Lindström (Sweden)
