Member since August 2017 Lake Worth, United States

Background: Captain William A. Wood is a tournament angler with a wealth of knowledge. He began fishing professional tournaments over two decades ago with B.A.S.S. and FLW. For William, there is nothing better than being on the water and anticipating the strike. And that applies to everything, from having fun with his family and friends to guiding and fishing in tournaments. Some of his accomplishments include 2-time Walmart BFL champion, 3 time Florida B.A.S.S. Nation angler of the year, Southern Division, and many more.
Techniques: Artificial baits of all kinds as well as Wild Shiners.

Capitan William put us on some good sized largemouths and a couple surprise catfish. We used a mixture of live shiners and artificial lures. I would definitely recommend a trip with Captain William!

Blake, I had an AWESOME time fishing with you and Taylor! You both did GREAT out there. Taylor catching that 8 foot Alligator on her first cast of the day was pretty memorable!! Looking forward to doing it all again someday.
