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...
