Captain Mark is a U.S. Coast Guard-licensed Captain and a disabled service-connected U.S Navy Veteran. Have been fishing Backcountry since I was 9 years old. Started guiding taking other wounded and disabled veterans fishing to share the joy and beauty of the Florida Keys. It became a business 15 years ago. I still take out wounded veterans for free year-round. I have a passion and love of fishing. Sharing that passion with as many people as I can.

Captain Mark has been saltwater fishing his whole life. After many years fishing the Gulf in the Tampa area, he decided to move down to the Florida Keys and share his experience with as many veterans as he possibly can. Although he enjoys fishing with everyone, 16 years ago he began taking out other vets, with and without disabilities, to share the fun and camaraderie of fishing. Soon after, began to take everyone out fishing and it became a passion to share the joy of fishing with as many people as possible. The beauty of the Everglades, Florida Bay and Atlantic Ocean...

Some times you are fortunate to meet people that leave a deep impression an impregnation on you. Captain Mark is one of these rare persons. I was fortunate to go fishing with him today and we had a blast. He is so kind, so full of knowledge, that I do recommend going fishing with him. His repeated actions around the wounded warrior project are a tribute to his care about his peers and good people...

Couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Captain Mark gave us the options of what to go after and he put us on the fish! Can’t wait to go back!

I wish I could give Captain Mark more than 5 stars! My two sons and I caught a ton of fish -- mackerel, snapper, trout, bluefish and more. Captain Mark knew the area, took us right where we needed to be and made sure we were set up for success. We wanted enough for a dinner, and we needed to buy a cooler to bring it all home. Captain Mark...
