Member since March 2019 Bradenton, United States
Background
My dad got me into fishing and boating when I was a little boy and I've been hooked ever since. I've spent a lot of time on the water because that's what I love. It's a true passion of mine, and wouldn't trade it for the world. I love taking kids or beginners out for the first time, seeing them catch their first fish. I love seeing the smiles on people's faces when they catch a new species they've never caught before. To me, that's really what it's all about!
Techniques
We specialize in light tackle fishing for Snook, Redfish, Trout, Tarpon, and more. The Boat has 2 live wells so we have plenty of bait for the whole day.
