Background
I've been an avid fisherman since childhood, I started from the beach and then offshore. My father fished with my uncle who was a fisherman and this is probably what inspired me to fish. I grew up on the seaside and enjoyed surfing and fishing from childhood. I also customized and built small boats and outfitted them to go fishing! I started deep sea fishing in 1988 and charter fishing in 1990 for a few years, then had a real job for a few years, lol. However, I still fished on weekends and holidays. After I got married in 1996, we had two boys, Noah and Tony, who also started fishing from a very young age. They both love fishing and they inspired me to get back into fishing for a living! This career change presented an opportunity to create a family business and spend more time together enjoying one of the best pleasures in life. Today I spend a lot of time fishing, and truly it's a way of life I get to share with everyone. I go fishing on my day off!
Techniques
We use mainly the trolling method and a variety of other techniques such as live bait, and dead bait. We are also commencing jigging on certain trips that will allow to do so. We have various other methods which remain confidential! We personally hand make our own lures and I take a lot of pride in my fishing trips and will endeavor to do my best for all of our customers. It's important for us to be successful just as much as rewarding to see our guests reel that fish in and the expression on their face when that fish is landed.
