Professional
Independent Fishing Guide
since 1995
Capt. Steven has been fishing the
waters of Key West and the west coast of Florida his entire life. A
Coast Guard licensed captain since 1986 he fished and dove offshore,
inshore, wrecks and the reef from the Dry Tortugas to Tarpon Springs. Diving
was his passion as a competitive spear fisherman and Dive Master. Capt.
Steven is also a veteran of the United States Coast Guard. He did his time
at Coast Guard Station Hatteras Inlet NC. Heavy weather search and rescue.
Being on
the water charges me. I love being able to look out and see nothing but a
natural island or just the horizon. As you can imagine it gives me the
feeling of being away from everything. People often ask me what I do for
vacation. My response is - I go to work because every day out there, I get
away...
Capt. Steven Turned full time professional
flats fishing guide in 1995. His approach to guiding is very unique
reflecting that of a professional. Like a doctor Capt. Steven takes each
client separately and finds out what it will take to help them "Live The
Dream."
I
see many other fishing guides here in Key West calling themselves the "best"
or "Ace" or whatever, most of them have only been here for a few years and
in some cases months, some of them are very good fishermen and some are terrible
fishing guides, still they seem to be pretty impressed with themselves being
able to find fish.
To me being a professional fishing guide means it's not about me, its about
my customers, they are why I am in this business. Every day I treat my
customers with respect and courtesy. After being here most of my life
finding and catching fish has become the easy part. I feel as though it does,
however, take a professional to show people how to catch them day in and day
out all while having a great time on my boat.

Capt. Steven is always
happy to answer questions about what he does for a living. Writing many
articles for different magazines, Capt. Steven loves to share his knowledge
with others so that they may enjoy the beauty of the waters that have been
given us to play on. He understands that the world he lives in is full of
wonder for folks who only get to visit once in a while.
I really
enjoy writing. It helps me put a window in the the wall that separates the
world out there and the one most people live in. Maybe they can read what I
write and get a view of what I see everyday out there, or they may pick up a
tip that might help them next weekend when they get out on the water. I
guess its my way of sharing my little daily getaway.
Promoting the Florida Keys
and Key West is another one of Capt. Steven's passions. Building a web site
dedicated to information about Key West. His goal is to point people in the
right direction when they are coming to visit the southern most island.
As you
can imagine, Key West is exploding with growth. Although things have
certainly changed a lot here the island is still a great place to visit. My
web site just helps visitors beware. Its a free service that offers folks a
ton of information about Key West with a toll free number to contact my
office and speak to someone 7 days a week. Hand picked accommodations,
activities and fishing charters for you to chose from backed with my seal of
approval that it is the Best Of Key West.
