Fly and Light Tackle Fishing Guides

For over 30 years, I’ve guided anglers through the Florida Keys, Biscayne Bay, and Everglades, specializing in fly and light tackle sight fishing. Whether we’re sneaking up on tarpon, bonefish, and permit in the Keys or chasing snook, redfish, and bass in the Glades, every trip is an adventure, sometimes strategic, sometimes chaotic, but always memorable. I enjoy sharing the challenge of sight fishing, the art of a perfect cast, and the ongoing pursuit of trying to outsmart fish that have been evading predators (including guides and anglers) their entire lives. Along the way, I try help clients refine their skills, gain experience, and hopefully, collect stories they’ll be telling for years. While tournament fishing has its place, I choose to focus on the pure experience of being on the water, where every cast holds promise, and every trip brings a surprise. Fishing isn’t just about the catch; it’s about the pursuit, the quiet moments, and the ones filled with laughter. That’s why I seek out the quieter, off-the-grid spots, where the only background noise is the sound of nature and maybe a few choice words when we miss a bite. Whether you’re here for the challenge, the escape, or just to see what the Keys and Glades are about, my goal is to make every trip an experience worth remembering.
