Born in South Africa on the east Coast. My dad was a fisherman and I started fishing from about 4 years old. I crewed on commercial fishing vessels since the age of 14 in South Africa( rod and reel line fishing- mostly reef and some game fishing). Worked as a deckhand on a charter boat in St Augustine for about a year in my 20's whilst living in Florida ( Jodie-Lynn II). I drove charter fishing vessels in Melbourne Australia between 2006 and 2015. Immigrated to Tampa in 2016. Been fishing Tampa Bay since 2016 but only started my charter business in full time in early 2024.

    Great Fishing day and the Best Captain

    4 Timmars Halvdagstur – Kustnära (FM) • 2 vuxna

    This was our first fishing trip on the west coast of Florida and we couldn't have found a better charter or Captain for our trip. Captain Russell was very accommodating and a perfect host. We found all the fish we wanted and good sized fish as well. He took good care of us with the great working equipment, tackle and skill catching those fish. He is well versed in the area and know where to go to catch all the types of fish in the area amd how to carch them including probiding the right bait and coaching needed to have a successful fishing trip. We will take his charter again soon. He captured our best moments as well. .

    lots of heavy bites!!

    4 Timmars Halvdagstur – Kustnära (FM) • 2 vuxna

    My fiance and I came from NY and the captain was able to hook us on to some good ones! He knows what to use and where, and that helped us pull multiple fish out that were over a foot and a half long. He helped me target some grouper when I asked so he is very knowledgable of what species live where. We all had a blast!

    Thank you so much for the great review. You, Amanda and father in law were so much fun! I am pleased that you caught a few grouper even though the season was closed. The red fish were not playing nice but the bite was great in the deeper water today! The fishing has really got good the last few weeks.

    Fun day of fishing with Captain Russell

    5 Timmars Halvdagstur – Kustnära (FM)

    My kids and I (ages 10 & 11) had an incredibly enjoyable & adventurous day with Captain Russ. My kids have only fished a couple of times before so he took them through a lot of the basics and made the learning fun for them! We spent 4 hours inshore fishing and caught some grouper, a red fish, flounder and a few mangrove snappers! The experience overall was SO FUN and we give him 5 stars. Highly recommend. Captain Russell is skilled & fun & has so many great fishing stories from his time in other countries as well as Florida. There are so many charters out there to pick from, you will not be disappointed with Capt Russell. He knows the area & is extremely fun to boot.

    Fishing With Captain Russell

    5 Timmars Halvdagstur – Kustnära (FM)

    This was my first experience on a fishing charter and had a Wonderful time! Captain Russell was kind and patient with me during our excursion. He baited my hook, taught me different techniques to use and educated me on the different fish we caught. I would highly recommend Captain Russell for all first timers and experienced fisherman. Thank you Captain Russell!
