Kevin Trahan

Member since January 2019 Crystal River, United States
Background
I retired from 24 years active duty service in the Coast Guard in 2015. I returned to my roots, Citrus County Florida. I have been fishing the local waters since 1982. I am environmentally conscious and strive to protect our resources, yet let my clients take what nature has provided us. I was a paramedic in the Coast Guard and also have my degree in Safety and Occupational Health. I take pride in my work and use my military experience to provide a safe and memorable trip to clients. I use the latest technology to stay abreast of the weather and tides to keep the clients and myself out of unfavorable conditions. Complete customer satisfaction is my goal and I will strive to accomplish that on each and every trip.

Had the pleasure of guiding 3 generations of the Pattonโ€™s from Georgia on Sunday.

Then moved to the nearshore mangroves to pick up a nice red at 26 inches and a few more shorts. A great time was had by all. Capt. Kevin

I went scouting late in October to try some new spots. Picked up a nice King Mackerel and a jumbo Spanish Mackerel, both while trolling plugs. Also jigged up a flounder. Now it is time to fire up the smoker. Book your trip now as the weather has cooled off and trolling for grouper is heating up Capt Kevin
