Fishing has been a lifelong passion of mine. I began at a very young age and have been fortunate enough to make a living doing what I love. Born and raised on the Texas Gulf Coast, I've dedicated the past 25 years of my adult life to fishing and exploring.

How did you get started guiding?

I have fished my entire life and always wanted to be a guide. One morning I woke up to go to my normal 9-5 job and asked myself why am I not doing what makes me happy. I quit my job that morning and the rest is history.

What makes you different from other guides?

I strive to provide a safe, fun, and entertaining experience aboard the boat. Each trip for me is an opportunity to share my passion and knowledge with a new group. Whether you are a beginner or the expert angler my goal is that we catch fish obviously but you also leave having learned something new and created memories that will last a lifetime.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
