About Us

It’s an Anglers Paradise

Local fishing guides are invaluable resources for anglers, regardless of your experience level. With me as your local fishing guide, you can benefit from decades of local knowledge and expertise in the complex waters and ecosystems of the area. 


I know the best times for fishing and which techniques to use for different species in different regions, eliminating the guesswork for anyone new to the sport as well as the seasoned pro. An experience you’ll never forget!

About the Captain

I‘m Captain Clyde Morgan, a US Coast Guard Licensed Master, born and raised in South Florida where I have fished these waters my entire life. I’ve been fishing the flats, backcountry and offshore waters since before it was a popular as it is.


 I am dedicated to preservation and sustainability of our local fisheries. I have taken the time to be certified through the Florida Friendly Fishing Guide Program established by the UF, Florida Sea Grant and the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, adopting science-based techniques that ensure we will leave a minimal environmental footprint while fishing.  


Along with the help of my team of highly experienced saltwater fishing guides, we are dedicated to providing you a personalized and exciting World-Class Fishing trip in the Florida Keys, the Flats of Florida Bay, Flamingo, and the Everglades Backcountry. We'll show you How to fish the Florida Keys.
