Background
Captain Jeff Jenkins always loved everything that has to do with fishing, and for a long while, he did it only in his spare time. When he finally decided to run charters for a living, he went all in and got his Captain License from the prestigious Chapman School of Seamanship!He's been on the water ever since, taking people out, showing them just how amazing fishing is off the coast of East Florida. Capt. Jeff likes nothing more than seeing families enjoy every benefit of being on the water..Seeing Manatee,Dolphin and a multitude of species that inhabit our estuary?
