Having spent more than four decades fishing the Gulf Coast's local waters, I bring extensive experience as a dedicated Floridian and seasoned fisherman. Born and raised in Pensacola within a naval family, I've devoted countless hours to exploring these waters and perfecting my angling techniques. My passion for fishing was inspired by my father, who was also deeply enthusiastic about the sport. Captain Jim is an outstanding guide—highly knowledgeable about fish species, their habitats, and effective fishing methods. Both Captain Jim and Bo deliver exceptional guidance and are genuinely great individuals. Their company made the trip incredibly enjoyable, and their beautiful boat enhanced the entire experience. I wholeheartedly endorse this team to anyone looking for a memorable fishing adventure.

We’ll travel ten miles offshore into the Gulf of Mexico to fish for some of Florida’s most renowned species at our top wrecks, reefs, and drop-offs. Over the past several decades, we’ve charted hundreds of prime locations throughout the Gulf. We carefully select the best spots depending on the season and the species currently present. If a particular wreck or reef isn’t producing, we move on to the next location to maximize your chances of an unforgettable fishing experience.
