About Your Guide

Joaquin Pena

Independent Guide 13 years of exp.

Captain Joaquin grew up fishing with his family and friends from an early age. It quickly became his passion, and soon he was off on the water by himself.

He attributes his time fishing to his patience, persistence, and analytical mindset which coincidentally are some of the reasons he makes such a great guide. Captain Joaquin is a well seasoned fisherman, and is eager to teach the knowledge he's acquired over a lifetime of fishing nearly every day.

Whether you're looking for a family trip, a personal trip, first time trip, or millionth time trip, Captain Joaquin is your guy.
