Roger Gendron

Member since December 2016 Punta Gorda, United States
Background
Captain Roger Gendron is an Orvis endorsed guide with over 30 years of experience guiding fly anglers. Dedicated to a quality over quantity viewpoint, Roger has developed a reputation of providing an enjoyable day on the water for his guests.
Techniques
In our eyes, casting a fly rod is the most rewarding method of fishing and most preferred by our clients. It is without question our strong suit. We also understand the challenges of fly fishing on windy days, or fishing more than one angler at a time. Accordingly, we offer light tackle fishing, predominately with spinning gear, as a compelling option when conditions, or our guests, favor a short rod. By offering maximum angler participation, we provide our sports the most gratifying fishing experience possible. Seasoned and casual anglers alike will appreciate casting a variety of flies and baits to attract fish both above and below the surface delivering a memorable encounter with each catch and a pleasant day on the water.
