Blackwater Charters

With Capt. Scott Hughes

     In addition to guiding I supplement my income by fishing the professional redfish fishing tournament trails and the Professional Tarpon Tournament Series held in Boca Grande Pass. This type of fishing gives me a break from the day to day grind of guiding and stimulates my competitive edge by challenging me find fish in unfamiliar waters.  Since 2005 I have fished the Wal-mart FLW redfish Series, Oh Boy Oberto Redfish Cup, Redfish Cup Allstars, and the Inshore Fishing Association Redfish Tour. The following is a list of my most recent results:

Currently my redfish team is ranked 6th in the Eastern US in FLW Redfish Series. Link!
