I’ve fished with a lot of guides; Jake worked his tail off to make a fantastic trip for us. Caught fish, didn’t spend all morning boat riding. Great guy, this was my Son In law first saltwater trip. Jake made it a great trip!! Thank You VERY Much!!

Captain Jake went above and beyond to make sure we had a successful fishing trip.
