About
I grew up fishing and working on boats in New Jersey. I got done with school in 2011 and moved to the keys to guide right away. I ran boats for a few different companies, before starting my own business in 2015. I think that sight casting to fish on the flats is one of the most challenging ways to fish and that is why I enjoy it.

VerifiedJamie Connell was super knowledgeable of the local fishing scene in Key West & showed me a great time. He knew how to navigate efficiently & quickly got us onto some rolling tarpon that put up incredible fights including out of water jumps & action. Later we caught some snapper & barracuda to round out the day. Jamie was fun to chat with & a real pleasure to fish with. I had a total blast ! Can’t wait to go out with him again …

VerifiedWhat a great day on the water with Jamie…put us on the fish right away. Caught the dream Tarpon, twice! Barracudas, Jacks, Snappers and almost a Blacktip! I highly recommend him if you make a trip to the Keys!

VerifiedExcellent 3 days with Jamie. I'm not a great fly caster and he still managed to get me plenty of shots at tarpon and bonefish. I managed to land one baby tarpon. He knows his stuff and I'll definitely be back!
