Decades on the water

Twenty-one years of Fly Fishing the waters of Boca Grande, Charlotte Harbor, and the Gulf of Mexico have been enjoyable, exciting, and challenging.

Every charter is specially designed for you, and meeting new friends is The Best! Every day on the water is special, and watching you hook up to a Big Snook, Redfish, or Tarpon is rewarding.

Every day is different: fishing the Mangroves for Snook, Redfish, and Seatrout, and the next day fishing the Gulf for Triple Tail, False Albacore, and Kingfish, or fishing both in the same day!

I tie all flies for your trip, proven patterns that I have developed over the years that CATCH Fish!

We also fish Pine Island, Bokelia, Matlacha, Peace River, Myakka River, Lemon Bay, Sanibel Island, Captiva Island, and Cayo Costa.

We will fish on my 1720Fly Fisher special Action Craft skiff, which has a front-deck brace to keep you safe and stable, and make casting easier… Let’s chase Silver! I provide all Fly and spin fishing rods, lures, flies, water, Gatorade, and your Fishing License… Remember…Have Fun, you are on vacation!!!

Brief History:

I have fished Baja for thirty-plus years for Dorado, Yellowfin Tuna,
Roosters and Marlin. Also fished Alaska for trout and Coho Salmon, as well as British Columbia for Silvers.

Grew up fly fishing the Sierra Nevadas: Hat Creek, Hot Creek, and the entire Coast of California.I fish the Bahamas for bonefish and Permit.

Bring your favorite Fly rod and join me chasing Silver, March through July!!!
