As your Captain I bring 20 years of global guiding experience to your trip. During the late 1980’s I taught scuba diving and ran charters in Guam for Marlin, Sails, Mahi and more… I spent numerous diving hours photographing and observing marine life and lectured on coral reef conservation at various institutions.
In the 1990’s I guided in Newport, RI. Here we targeted Striped Bass, Bluefish, Bonito, Fat Alberts, and Blackfin Tuna on the long rod. I provided educational slide shows and lectured at multiple fishing clubs and wrote “how to” fishing articles for the New England Fisherman Magazine.
For the last 10 years I have been fishing the waters of Southwest Florida and guiding anglers to a multitude of species. In 2003, I helped kick off a new publication, WaterLife Magazine, and was a contributing editor detailing the intricacies of fishing the waters surrounding Boca Grande, Florida. I have an intimate knowledge of the fish behavior, weather conditions and the tidal influences that prevail in this area. This experience allows me to customize every fishing trip based on angler’s desires, abilities, and prevalent conditions to ensure that all my clients will have a memorable trip.
