Captain's Profile Tarpon Fishing! Snook Fishing Tournament Trails and Standings FAQ
In the past I have supplemented my income by fishing the professional redfish fishing tournament trails and tarpon tournaments held in Boca Grande Pass. Most of the more lucrative redfish tournaments were held on the upper Gulf Coast. The BP oil spill help end all that. I am now retired from all tournament fishing and now focus all of my energy on my fishing charter clients and my family. The following is a list of my results during my fishing tournament career: Scroll down the page to check out some of the photos.
