MEET YOUR GUIDE

Born and raised on the pristine waters of Biscayne National Park, Captain John Long's connection to these flats runs deeper than professional expertise—it represents a lifetime journey that began with catching his first bonefish on Chapman Flat as a child using a pink jig. Every tide pattern, flat characteristic, and subtle water movement became second nature through decades of immersion, providing John with an intimate understanding of hidden spots most anglers never discover. Today, this lifelong student of Biscayne Bay has become one of its most respected teachers, guiding clients on the very same flats where he honed his craft, sharing not just technical fishing knowledge but generations of local wisdom that can only come from someone who truly belongs to these waters.
