I grew up in a commercial fishing family in the Florida Keys and spent my childhood on the water. After playing college baseball, I returned home to pursue my passion for fishing and turned a lifetime of experience into a full-time career.
What makes you different from other guides?
Born and raised in the Florida Keys, I combine local knowledge, cutting-edge equipment, and an obsession with putting clients on fish. Whether it’s a reef trip, offshore adventure, or trophy swordfish hunt, I treat every charter like it’s my own day on the water.
