A little about myself, I grew up in Tequesta FL, just north of Jupiter FL. My older brother and I grew up fishing the loxhatchee river exploring the vast fishery and knew fishing/boating was a passion I couldn't ever let go of. I work at a small marina in tequesta when I'm not running fishing charters or dealing with one of my 4 young boys sports. There ages range from 5-11 years old currently and everyone plays sports, tackle football, basketball, baseball and rough housing also seems to be in the mix of sports too.

I'm coming into my 7th year as a uscg 100t masters boat captain. I've captained vessels up to 75ft in length. Worked on the water or vessels for the past 25 years of my life. 34 years old. The water is home to me and when the kids are grown I fully intend to live on the water for a period of my life if not the rest of it.

How did you get started guiding?
Life started getting in the way of my fishing addiction and it was a way to get more time on the water providing memorable experiences for everyone.
What makes you different from other guides?
I guide because I love the water, for most catching a fish is one of the most vulerable moments I feel like we have as humans. Especially in todays day and age it brings youth and innocences back out in everyone. I take pride in providing my knowledge I've developed over decades of fishing and working on the water to provide life time memories.
