Kenneth Pichardo

Member since March 2020 Oranjestad, Aruba
Background
Captain Kenneth was born in Curacao and has fished in the area since he was a teenager. His father and brother owned a boat and he started running trips as soon as he finished school. Earlier in his career, he actively participated in fishing tournaments but has since decided to dedicate himself fully to guiding. His job allows him to meet new people every day and teach them how to land their dream catch!
Techniques
I mostly have done trolling some sword fishing and I would say I'm very good at bill fishing
