Captain
Ryan C.f Jones

Member since June 2019 Noord, Aruba
Background
I began working on the ocean when I moved to Aruba from Miami, FL. Started off working under watersports station on the beach in front of Marriott Surf Club and became an all-around guy from driving boats, to handling jetski rentals. Over the last few years, I had been wanting to do my own thing and have my Daughter, my 1st-Mate and my Media Executive by my side. Finally, I got my chance thanks to my father helping out to start this business – and here we are now, Ocean bound!
Techniques
I like to experiment with many things from rigs, to lures, to line setup ect, I will try anything once and if its effective I will try it again, I enjoy Trolling and Daytime Swordfishing, bottom fishing is ok but not my preffered style of fishing, I also enjoy deep dropping and jigging for live bait for massive Cudas.
