Josh is an excellent fishing guide. We booked a fishing trip knowing it was not the ideal weather. Josh put us on fish every time. Once the bite stopped we zipped to other spots with fish. Josh knows the islands and has a great personality and good stories. Can’t go wrong with booking a trip with Josh at JP’s Backwater Adventures!

Josh was able to accommodate my last minute decision to fish. Suggested an early start to beat the wind and boats. 100% worked out. First cast landed fish. Great knowledge of key spots was clear. Boat was perfect and gear top notch. Really enjoyed his company and enthusiasm. The giant Snook hook up was a thrill….Brought home dinner - sheepshead. Super trip, great guide and really solid dude. Highly recommended.
