Captain Santos ("Jr.") was a great guide. He worked so hard in very tough conditions to put us on some great fish including nice snook and redfish on top water. He is a dedicated and hard core light tackle and fly flats fisherman in the classic tradition! The area around Ozello is amazing, unspoiled water. He also is a blast to be with, with a fun relaxed personality. Highly recommend!
