Alex, was great! Very personable and friendly. Fishing was tough, but it can be when it’s hot. He got us on some fish and got my wife a shark! That was all she asked for on her birthday! Thanks Alex!

Fantastic trip with an excellent guide! I have fished all over north and south America. You always wonder what kind of guide you will get. One that works to provide a good trip or one that just provides a trip. Alex provided fantastic service and got me on a lot of tarpon! He operates a newer boat with updated electronics, trolling motor and main engine. I would definitely recommend him to anyone that wants...

We had a great trip out with Alex! He took us to various spots to fish and see what was biting. He made sure the likes always had fresh bait, gave tips on how to use the equipment, identified the fish we saw in the water (and some sharks too!) and what we were catching. He was informative about the area, fishing there, etc. He recommended a great little place where we could take our catch to have it cooked immediately after- was very good!! We had a great experience!
