My teen son and I spent a great deal of time researching to get the best guide for a flats fishing trip. We don't have a great deal of experience... read more catching Bonefish, Tarpon or Permit and wanted exposure to all of it. I wanted a guide that could teach, not just show. Flats boats are small/close quarters so it's also important to pick someone who is personable.
