Member since March 2019 Jan Thiel, Curacao
Background
I have been fishing all my life but got completely hooked on it in 2004 when I went on charter in Aruba. It was clear to me then that was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I have been chartering for 20 years now. I love teaching my customers everything I know and accommodating their unique desires, as well as meeting new people.
Techniques
Trolling is what I prefer to do, along with live bait drifting and jigging for Tuna at night.
