I am a full time fishing guide covering Sarasota, Manatee, and Pinellas counties. Although I started professionally guiding in January, I have lived and fished in Manatee county since 1985. I have owned my own boat since 1992. Recreationally I regularly spent 2-3 days a week on the water. Now that I am guiding, I will spend 250+ days a year guiding people from all over the country on my local waters. I guide out of 2 boats. A 2007 Century 2202 and a 2012 Marauder Marine Avenger 24.
