A word from Capt. Phil
As a young boy, all I ever wanted to do is fish. It didn’t matter if it was freshwater, saltwater, bass or mackerel, the tug was my drug. I would always have a rod with me ready to fish any water I could find. Choosing to do this as a full time guide has proven to be the most rewarding choices I have ever made. Giving the experience of fishing to enthusiasts, amateurs and families alike is my driving factor! I sincerely hope I can share my passion for fishing with you!!
