James Loisel

Member since February 2023 St. Johns, United States
Background
Captain James Loisel grew up outside of Central Florida where he was on the water everyday. From a young age he was into fishing, whether it was chasing around Largemouth bass at the local lakes or fishing the Mosquito Lagoon for schooled up Redfish, I just loved the hunt and the thrill of the fight. I moved to the Historic Coast back in 2016 where I attended the University of North Florida. While I moved to North Florida for school, my priorities were very much focused on Learning the waterways in the Region. I started my Guide Service not long after that as I wanted to take people on an adventure and get to share the feeling that I first felt long ago that made me want to become a Guide. I strive for excellence everyday I am on the water and am very competitive to always want to do better, that means I will give you my 100% on your trip to make sure we have the opportunities to have the most success possible. I offer both Inshore trips on a Maverick flats boat as well as a Pathfinder 2500 depending on the trip and size of group.
Techniques
Light tackle, Fly Fishing, Artificial, Live Bait

Not worth as much as was charged. Ran out of bait before the 4 hours were up and didnโ€™t hardly see much of what was advertised.
Cristal K. does not recommend Tideline Fishing Charters
