It is so wonderful when I guide anglers that are serous about catching fish and understand they should put in the time to practice their techniques and/or invest in quality equipment and Scott did both, getting out as soon as the snow melted in Pennsylvania so he could throw the fly on his new rod and reel to be ready for the challenge when he went for the real thing on the saltwater.  And it all paid off with a photo as proof.  Kudos to Scott!!

Scott booked me for three days, and we made the very best of all three!  2nd day got his bucket list tarpon on his newly purchased fly rod and reel and celebrated with the “first tarpon in-the-water-release” Keys Tradition!

Alexander was a skilled fly fisherman and enjoyable to guide on his first trip to the Florida Keys and although the fish were not cooperating he gave every effort to make the best of his time on the water. . Would love forward to having him on the boat again!!

Great day on the water with James and his wife Karen.  Several spotted sea trout were caught and released.

Ooh, that hurt being penalized for the weather and missed shots. Surely did my best and showed Adam a lot of fish, but they too can be tricky along with weather conditions and I can NOT control either.
