Captain
Juan Herndon

Member since December 2018 St. Petersburg, United States
Background
A fisherman for most of his life, Captain Juan always enjoyed fishing with other people and sharing his tips and expertise with others. The natural next step was to become a captain. He did so in 2016 and still gets a thrill every time he's out on the water, especially when seeing people catch their first fish thanks to his help. The most rewarding thing, for him, is seeing other people catch their daily limit or their dream, big catch.
Techniques
Flats fishing, fishing near the beach, bottom dropping, top water action, inshore/nearshore fishing
