About Your Guide

Captain Brian lived in New Jersey until he was 10. He used to fish on the Manasquan River and Shark River. Then when he moved to Florida in 1987, he started fishing Clam Pass and Rookery Bay, and fishing off the Naples Pier of course. In 2009, Captain Brian bought his first boat and that opened a whole new world of fishing.
