Guided by Gulf Coast Backcountry Charters
Crystal River, Florida • 6-9 years of experience
I'm a south Florida native, I grew up fishing the Everglades and the Florida Keys. I moved to Crystal River and have been fishing throughout the Nature Coast and Big Bend regions for the past 22 years. I started guiding in 2015, I have put in countless hours to learn and understand these waters. I continue to put in the extra effort to stay on fish and give my guests the best chance for sucess on the water. I guide on a Maverick HPX-S which allows me to fish in our area's shallowest backcountry tributaries and pristine grass flats. I offer fly fishing and light tackle trips targeting Snook, Redfish, Black Drum, Trout, Tripletail, Cobia, and Tarpon.
