Born and raised in the Florida Keys, I’ve spent a lifetime learning the waters surrounding the Upper Keys, Biscayne Bay, Florida Bay, Everglades Backcountry, as well as Reef/Reef Edge and Offshore fisheries. What started as a passion turned into a disciplined, results-driven approach built on understanding tides, seasonal movements, and how fish behave day to day.
I specialize in targeting inshore / backcountry gamefish and reef species but also offer access to remote backcountry rookeries, reef edge wrecks, and offshore zones. Whether it’s technical sight-fishing on the flats, combing the Everglades creeks and shorelines, or working structure for Snapper and Grouper on the Reef, every trip is tailored to conditions and the angler in the boat.
My focus is simple; maximize opportunity, stay efficient, and deliver a high-quality experience on the water. Whether you're a serious angler looking to dial things in or just want a great day exploring some of the most productive and scenic waters in the Keys, I run trips with a professional, no-wasted-time approach.
