Hello my name is Capt. Logan and I am the owner and operator. I was born and raised here in beautiful SWFL. I grew up on the water and started fishing here at a young age. I know the waters well and aim to put my clients on as much action as possible. After I graduated high school I left for boot camp at Paris island SC. I served 4 years in the Marine Corps and went on two deployments overseas. After my enlistment I moved back home and started my guiding career. I am very passionate about the place I call home and enjoy sharing the fishing/ iguana hunting and beauty of it with others.

Awesome trip in every aspect. Logan is a top notch guide, not only does he provide an incredible hunt, but he’s one of the most personable guides I’ve ever met which really makes the experience feel like hunting with friends. From the top of the line equipment, to his dog Kona being one of the best behaved and responsive retrievers, he’s the only guide you should book with.

I would give more stars if I could. Logan was a great guide and very knowledgeable about hunting SWFL. Kona was a great dog and one of the best parts of the trip was watching her retrieve the iguanas. When we do another iguana hunting trip we will definitely choose Logan as our guide!

Captain Logan was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and entertaining throughout the entire trip. Kona was not only impressive to watch but added a unique and enjoyable element to the hunt. Together, they make an outstanding team.

The equipment provided was top-notch. The air guns were incredibly accurate, which made the
hunt both successful and enjoyable. It’s clear that Captain Logan takes pride in maintaining high-quality gear and creating a first-class experience for his clients.

I’ve been on several iguana hunts over the years, and this one was by far the best. From start to finish, everything was organized, professional, and fun. If you’re considering an iguana hunt in South Florida, I highly recommend booking a trip with Captain Logan and Kona. You won’t be disappointed!
