How did you get started guiding?
I had a dream to be a fishing guide since I was a little kid. I have been fishing all my life and some of my best memories with my dad and grandad were made on the same waters I now make a living fishing. It’s been the greatest achievement of my life being able to take people fishing as a career.
What makes you different from other guides?
There are many guides who are driven but I think my drive is unmatched. I waste no time, I am prompt, I genuinely care about the experience my guests have on my boat and want to see them smile throughout the trip. When the fishing is slow at times it bums me out worse than it may bum out the customer. Making sure my customers have a day they’ll always remember is my priority.
