We fish from a 22’ Sterling Flats boat. The boat is super wide, has a lot of topside standing and casting area, and is kept in tip top condition. The boat has a very shallow draft and requires a minimum amount of water to float which makes it the perfect platform for this type of fishing. The 225hp Yamaha motor allows us to spend lot more time fishing and less time traveling then most guides. It is fully equipped with Gps and sonar electronics systems, poling platform & push pole, a Power Pole shallow water anchoring system, 36 volt trolling motor, 2 livewells, and 4 batteries– we won’t run out of juice!

Safety is number one while on my vessel. I am a US Coast Guard licensed Master Captain, which certifies me to captain a vessel up to 50 gross tons. Overkill for my One Ton Flats Boat? Absolutely! But knowledge is key to safety! I also keep current certifications for both CPR and first aid. My Vessel meets and exceeds safety and life saving equipment requirements regulated by the US Coast Guard. In addition to VHF radio, I also keep a satellite operated telephone on board for emergency use.

I cannot stress enough how important your safety is to me.
