Fishing
on the Indian River is an adventure that you will talk about for years to
come. With the
trout,
redfish, snook and
tarpon, who make
their home here, there will always be great memories of an enjoyable fishing
trip.
If
you have never sight fished with light tackle, don't worry. I
cater to all fishing experience levels, from
beginner to expert. My job is to help you catch
fish without the stress and screaming you my have encountered with other
guides. I will do everything I
can to help you catch a big one. If you don't know what sight fishing is,

more information.
Since I
specialize in sight fishing, most of the fishing we be doing is in less than
3 feet of water. This gives us the advantage of spotting reds up to 200
yards away. I guarantee once you have had a chance to feel the adrenalin
rush of spotting and sneaking up on tailing fish you will be addicted.
The flats in
this area are
considered one of the top 10 spots in the world for sight fishing redfish.
Due to its popularity the Cocoa Beach area has been the target of numerous
fishing shows. Now the only thing missing is you, so stop dreaming about
fishing the flats and watching other people do it on TV and let's go catch
some memories.
When
you fish with me expect to be provided with the same quality equipment I expect to be provided with when I hire a guide.
So,
You can always count on
-
A
fresh spool of line.
-
Having
top quality equipment put in your hands.
-
I currently use Shimano Stradic spinning
reels, Ross fly reels and G-Loomis Greenwater rods.
-
Quality
lures and tackle.
-
A
spacious smooth riding boat (click
here
for more information about my boat).
-
And
most of all, a full time guide that wants to see YOU catch fish.
Over the past few
years, I have caught redfish averaging 35 inches with a few up to 55 inches.
Another fun fish to
catch in the Indian and Banana Rivers is the spotted sea trout. It is common
to catch them between 12 to 27 inches with an occasional gator (30+ inches).
I am
a full time U.S. Coast Guard Licensed Captain with over 30 years
experience fishing the Indian and Banana Rivers from Titusville to Cocoa
Beach for redfish, trout, snook and tarpon. I currently fish from
2005 Famous Craft 1800XL.
It is one of the most comfortable and driest flats boats on the market.
