Capt Ethan was born and raised in Florida and has lived in the Tampa Bay area his entire life. He’s been fishing the waters around Clearwater and Tampa bay for nearly 20 years. He’s always had a deep passion for fishing and sharing that passion with others. Capt Ethan really enjoys watching people get excited about fishing as much as he does, especially kids!

He specializes in inshore and nearshore fishing for a wide variety of species. Whether you’re stalking the backcountry flats for snook and redfish, fishing the gulf for snapper and grouper, or battling giant tarpon along the beaches, you’re in good hands with Capt Ethan at the helm!
