Meet Capt. Sebastian
I am 22 years old and have been fishing the waters of Florida since the age of 3. Any free time I ever had I would always be on the water. The love for fishing only continue to grew as I was able to drive and make new connections and fish new areas. As my love for fishing continued to grow so did my passion for putting other people on the best memories they could have and seeing that smile from ear to ear.
