I have fished all over the world and this guide is by far the best Capt. I have had the pleasure to fish with.
Capt. Derren is very nice guide with very good equipment. We had plenty tarpon action on not perfect days. Thanks again Capt.
Best fly fishing trip ever! I would recommend Derren to everyone!
Went out with Capt Derren and had a great time! I am a terrible fisherman (fisher woman ?) but he was wonderful, he took his time teaching me how to fly fish and in the end I landed the largest Bone fish I have every seen! I also got to see amazing back country and relax at the end of the day at beautiful eastern content keys. Can’t wait for my next trip…next time I am going for Permit on fly!
Derren will catch You Fish.
As an IGFA women’s world record holder on fly – I have spent ALOT of time on the water with more than my share of guides and he is TOP of the sport. Some people are just ‘fishy’ and Capt. Derren has got it all – skill, knowledge of all the secret spots, he knows what flys to use and when AND he’s a great guy to be on the water with. The guide search can be daunting but I can tell you a day on the water with Capt. Derren will be anything but disappointing!
I had a great time with Derren who worked hard to get me to fish in a non-eating period of time down there. We saw GOBS of fish, yes GOBS! Please don’t book any of my times with him, Ha!
