Jared was born and raised in Key West, Florida. He is a 4th generation conch. To say that Jared is a good fly-guide is a shallow portrayal. He has a depth of knowledge about the waters of Key West and an understanding of the fishery that goes far beyond being able to pole a flats boat. It’s the kind of knowledge that no GPS will help you find. It’s a feel, a sense of timing and a few practiced tricks that make Jared a master of his craft.
