Captain Samuel hails from a long line of fishermen in Southern New Jersey. His fishing journey has taken him to the deep offshore canyons of the Northeast, as well as along the Atlantic coast. Growing up, he spent countless hours fishing with his grandfather around Big Pine Key, which helped shape his passion from a young age. With more than a decade of professional angling experience, Captain Samuel’s extensive understanding of Key West and its surrounding waters ensures successful fishing trips and exceptional charters throughout the year. When he’s not guiding clients, he enjoys sharing his love for fishing with his wife and their two young daughters, ages one and three. A fantastic outing for all—great catches, lots of smiles, and a fun ride to and from the reefs!
