Benjamin Knight

Member since January 2020 Orange Beach, United States
Background
I was born and raised in Florence, AL and have fished my whole life. I started guiding in 2014 and have loved every minute of it. Everything from Bill to Trout fishing I enjoy but it’s taking families out that is my absolute favorite. Nothing compares to seeing a child catch their first fish, and knowing you had a part in bringing about such joy. Bring your families to my boat and you’ll have them hooked on fishing in no time!
Techniques
I prefer the into level of fishing. Taking time to demonstrate how everything works. from operation to landing fish. Good times are my specialty!
