Fishing being good for me and my customers. Seems like the colder it gets the better the fish bite, for us to catch fish.

The week before Thanksgiving I got to take out my mentor Capt Benny and his partner, Steven Williams, and we got on some Reds. Well, over Thanksgiving weekend, I was in Florida spending time with my daughter and grandbabies. And yes we got out fishing and it was good Reds...

The fall bite has been great and only getting better. I've been doing more working than guiding lately. Here's a photo from the last trip.

Mark was a great guide. I’ve been on many charters but Mark definitely took things to a whole new level. He made sure we caught a fish and helped us the entire catch. Mark is very knowledgeable in his craft and I’ll definitely be returning to him in the near future.
