Joe Masi

Member since January 2022 St. Petersburg, United States
Background
Captain Joe's been fishing since around 2 years old and hasn't looked back. He comes from a family of fishermen and was taught a lot at a young age. He has two younger brothers and they love to fish together when they have time. Captain Joe's done a lot of fishing and still enjoys it. Now that he's gotten a little older, he enjoys seeing others catch fish and teaching them, and seeing them get the passion he has is more rewarding than you can imagine.
Techniques
Live bait fishing with quality tackle light and heavy depending on what you're targeting but Captain Joe's favorite species to target are Tarpon and Tripletail. For both he uses similar techniques of sight-casting the right bait, and watching them eat is just a bonus.
