I’m Capitan Steven, I was born in Homestead, Fl. but grew up in Ocala, Fl. I earned my Capitan’s License in 2023, however I’ve been on boats and fishing my whole life. My grandfather was a Fishing Capitan as well and I am proud to continue the legacy. My goal with owning my own charter business is to show people what nature has to offer from catching their first fish or their biggest fish maybe...

Steven was a pleasure to spend a day with. We caught plenty of fish throughout the day in a variety of different spots. He was well prepared with water and powerade on a hot summer day. His boat and equipment were more than adequate as well as an abundance of bait for the day. Would recommend Steven for anyone looking to get out and catch some fish!
