Rapid Fire Guide Q & A

If you were cooking for all your friends what would you cook?
Fish. Duh.
What’s your favorite band?
The Pixies.
What’s your favorite movie?
That's a tough one. Maybe My Cousin Vinny or the Big Lebowski.
What’s your favorite sports team?
Any Philadelphia team (where I was born) or Florida team.
What’s your drink of choice?
I like black cherry White Claw.
What was your last halloween costume?
I was the wolf and my Fiancée was little red riding hood.
What do you want for Christmas this year?
A vacation to go surf or maybe bonefish.
How did you get started guiding?
I worked on head and charterboats since I was 15. After 7 years on deck I got my Captain's license and opened my own charter business.
What makes you different from other guides?
My level of experience and the size of my license. I've spent my life on the water and hold a 500 Ton Master of Towing Oceans license. The level of training I have received is 500 times that of the average guide. I've run fishing boats, crewboats, supply boats, tugboats, and yachts in the Atlantic, Pacific, Gulf of Mexico, and Carribean. I have a ton of stories. I've spent the last 16 years honing my skills on the Indian and Banana River lagoon systems. Your saftey and enjoyment are my top priority.

Spent a half day out with Captain Kenneth! Had an amazing day fishing for black drum, mango snapper, tarpon, and snook. He did an awesome job running the boat and keeping everyone going and hooking the big ones! The questionable weather in Florida didn’t stop us from having a good time. Thank you for the great day!
