The captain

Offshore and inshore, from speckled trout to swordfish.

Born and raised in Central, Louisiana, Sam was on the water before he could walk. He has spent more than 20 years in the charter and commercial fishing business and has fished with many respected captains across the Gulf.

All that time on the water has given him plenty of tricks for putting fish in the box. From trout to swordfish, Captain Sam won't quit until the box is full and your back is sore.
