Captain Brooks grew up in Louisiana but spent every summer he can remember in Key West, where he developed a lifelong passion for being on the water. Some of his best memories growing up were made in the Florida Keys, and he always knew he wanted to find a way to make a living doing what he loves.
Over the years, that passion turned into a love for guiding and sharing the incredible waters around Key West with others. Whether he’s chasing fish in the backcountry, working the flats, or exploring the open water, Brooks enjoys making every trip a fun and memorable experience.
His number one priority is his clients. He wants everyone who steps on his boat to have a great day, enjoy themselves, and leave with memories they’ll be talking about long after the trip is over. Brooks is fortunate to call Key West home and even more fortunate to be able to share it with people from all over the world.
