Captain
Bryan Hopkins

Member since May 2019 Pensacola Beach, United States
Background
Captain Bryan had the opportunity as a young teenager to begin fishing offshore in the Gulf of Mexico and has been passionate about the sport ever since. He feels he's been blessed with the opportunity to experience saltwater fishing in places like the Northern Gulf, Florida Keys, as well as the Carolina coast. He absolutely enjoys sharing his passion with others, particularly someone who has never had the opportunity to reel in a big fish. It brings him joy to help someone create that lasting memory.
Techniques
Captain Bryan fishes with live bait, dead bait, and artificial lures. It depends on the target species, the conditions, and the bite. He can fish the flats, or go offshore to reef fish, drift, or troll.
