How did you get started guiding?

I wanted to live my dream so I quit my corporate day job, sold me house, and took a deckhand job until I could get my Captain’s License and start my own business. Best choice I ever made even though it was a big downgrade in pay at first.

What makes you different from other guides?

While I absolutely am obsessed with catching fish, I want to create the experience for the customer that is more than a business transaction and more than just about the fish we catch. I do this because I love every aspect of being on the water and being out in nature. You can find a charter anywhere. I want each of my clients to feel like they just spent an epic day on the water with a good friend.
