The devastation has impacted many in our area. This fund is being organized for those local fishing guides who have worked so hard to bring joy to our friends, family and visitors over the years.

(UPDATED) Each time we reach $250, we will present a local guide with a gas card to help them with their most common expense...fuel. We will also be promoting these local guides here on the site so you know that these funds are going directly to our cause. Please contact me to nominate additional guides in need or helping with relief efforts.

On a personal note...my charter is a volunteer charter for Veterans so I will NOT be participating in these funds. Just helping to distribute them to local captains who depend on fishing for their income. If you have ANY questions about the distribution of funds, please reach out to me via my website below or on Facebook.com/BstroFL

Like so many, Captains have lost boats, homes & vehicles. All of them will be impacted financially in some way. This is a picture from a local captain during the storm. Our goal will be to help as many as possible. Please feel free to nominate guides to receive funds.

Thank you so much for anything you can do to help our local guides.
