I’m Capt. Rick, an independent, island born Bahamian guide who knows the "Bonefish Flats" around Green Turtle Cay, Abaco, Bahamas and other neighboring islands. I am licensed, and “IGFA" and “STCW” certified captain and guide. I have over 35 years experience guiding and charter fishing.
My passion for fly-fishing started in the 70's when I had the pleasure of guiding for baseball legend Ted Williams while staying aboard our family vessel "Mary Ann Kate". In the 90's, I also had the pleasure of guiding for Chad Foster of "Flyfishing Americas" and many others throughout the fishing industry.
I am a guide that is dedicated to providing the best possible fishing experience, committed to ensuring client satisfaction. I am a skilled angler who knows the flats, the tides, and has a deep understanding of the bonefish and its behavior … ensuring a potential for a very high level of success and I will knowledgeably share my experience with my clients.

Choosing Your Guide
When choosing your guide, without a doubt, choose one who is licensed and is native born. You want one who does this full time and knows where the fish are, or works very hard to find them. Your guide should not be a part time guide; they are learning on your dime. When fly-fishing, you want a guide that will pole the boat to get you a shot at the fish; not stakeout, chum up and wait for the fish to show. You want a guide with experience and patience, a guide who can help teach a beginner no matter what the age or gender.
Abaco Flyfish Connection & Charters is a guide service that our client's keep coming back too!

Our rates for Bonefishing are competitive with other island guides on the mainland of Abaco. If you’re paying for a full day or a half day and getting less time fishing because of traveling to where you have to fish - then come fish with us! With Abaco Flyfish Connection we can pick you up and most times your fly or bait is in the water 15 minutes later -- as you cast for the “Gray Ghosts” on the flats.
