Biography
Capt. Mark has been fishing the 160 mile length of the fabled Indian River Lagoon System since 1970. He brings a lifetime of sport-fishing experience and over 10 years of commercial fishing knowledge to your day on the water. Capt. Mark's passion for inshore saltwater fishing began while living in Stuart, Florida at the southern reaches of the Indian River Lagoon. Here he learned the fine art of snook fishing from the area's lighted bridges while fishing at night. Here too he learned how to catch trout by the hundreds on the expansive flats from Jensen Beach to Ft. Pierce.

Presently Capt. Mark resides in Titusville, Florida at the extreme north end of the Indian River Lagoon and the adjoining Mosquito Lagoon, where the highly prized redfish reigns supreme. Capt. Mark, until becoming a FULL-TIME fishing guide commercially fished these water for spotted trout and pompano in the hook and line industry. Today Capt. Mark only guides, preferring to return as many fish as possible to the water to be caught again.




While Capt. Mark is locally known for finding the GIANT redfish this area is famous for he is equally adept at finding the slot-sized redfish that most anglers prefer. Another specialty to mention is fishing for trout in the summer months using live pigfish, which Capt. Mark traps himself.

Capt. Mark has been featured on national television on the Outdoor Channel and local Florida television shows and has authored featured articles in major fishing publications. Capt. Mark is often requested by area business to give seminars on various fishing techniques and authors a biweekly fishing forecast and report for a local newspaper.
