Background
I have lived in South Florida my entire life and have been fishing since I was a kid. And while I have fished all over Florida, the Everglades is an area that Im truly passionate about. It's a magical place and one of my favorite places to be. With years of experience navigating the waters of the Everglades, I have the knowledge and experience to put customers on the fish and educate them on the amazing wildlife that the glades has to offer. As well as being a guide, I am also an avid tournament angler and complete in some of the largest tournament trails in Florida. I run a brand new 2025 Nitro Z-18 powered by a Mercury 150hp motor with a cruising speed of around 55mph. The boat is tournament ready with 4 new Lowrance Elite series graphs inluding live sonar, Minn Kota Ultrex trolling motor with spot lock and remote operation and so much more. On board you will find quality Lews spinning rod/reel combos. I always have a few extra on board to ensure there's no break in the fishing due to snagged lines or lost hooks. There is also a cooler filled with ice, water and gatorade, a first aid kit, auto inflatable life jackets, all fishing gear needed for your trip and plenty of dry storage area's. Whether you're a novice angler or a seasoned pro, I always strive to make sure you have an unforgettable day on the water.
Techniques
Live bait fishing (shiners) and artificial bait.

Awesome fish of the Everglades
Awesome fish of the Everglades
Apr 23, 2025 Fort Lauderdale
Everglades fishing is known for largemouth bass and peacock bass but theres so many more species to catch. And while no two trips are alike, cuetomers have been catching some really cool fish such as: Tiger Oscars - A beautiful fish with an amazing red/orange pattern. These fish put up a really hard fight and are ferocious predatory fish. Gator Gar - Tons of needle like teeth, armor plated skin and a big attitude, these fish are mean. They fight hard and even jump out of the water as they are being reeled in. Customers have been catching some pretty good size gars lately on topwater and shiners. Jaguar cichlids - An absolutely beautiful fish with a golden yellow color and a dark pattern similar to a jaguar. This is a non native species and are normally seen in home aquariums but they have made their way to the waterways of Florida. Extemely aggressive and dagger like teeth make this fish is an amazing catch in the glades. Bowfin - Agressive, hard fighting, toothy and strong pretty much sum up a bowfin. They are a native fish to Florida. Most of the bowfin my customers catch range from 2 to 10 pounds and put up an extremely hard fight. While its hard to specifically target bowfin in the Everglades, they are an amazing bycatch. Mayan Cichlid - Another beautiful, non native fish found in the glades. It has an olive brown to orange color with dark markings. They are an aggressive fish that put up a good fight on light tackle. They are a good eating fish with white, flaky meat which make them a favorite fish for aome anglers. Warmouth - While small in size, they are a very cool fish with amazing markings that are fun to catch on light tackle. We dont see many of these fish so when we do its usually a round of high fives and tons of photos. While there are so many other species of fish in the glades, these are some of the most popular fish that are caught by my customers. Now is a great time to book a trip with Everglades Fishing Experience. The fishing in the glades has been amazing.
