About

A fantastic way to spend a day casting from the bow of Capt. Jakes 2017 Maverick Mirage HPX 17 ft. skiff. Target species include tarpon, bonefish, permit, redfish, black drum, Triple Tail, and Snapper. Jake offers trips in the crystal clear waters in Biscayne Bay and the surrounding Keys, or the endless grass flats and mangrove estuaries of Flamingo, Everglades National Park. Jake is well-versed in both fly fishing and conventional spin fishing disciplines, and is welcoming of angler abilities. Increase your odds at multiple species and more opportunities with a full-day trip exploring south Florida's backcountry.

"Passionate. That would be the one word I'd use to describe the correlation between myself and the sport/escape we call fishing. From as early as my elementary school years to now, I've focused on perfecting my craft and feeding that passion. At 24 years young, I strive to continue that trend for as long as I possibly can and provide you with an experience and memories that last a lifetime. As your guide, I will walk you through the system and steps it takes to successfully spot, cast, feed, and land that dream fish of yours. Expect an outgoing, open atmosphere on the skiff.
