Emmanuel Williams

Emmanuel specializes in offshore fishing from a PWC! He targets species such as wahoo, tuna, mahi, and sailfish. Even bottom-dwelling species like yellow edge groupers and golden tilefish. Emmanuel's fishing style is unconventional, like deep dropping with an electric reel in 1000+ feet of water or planer fishing all on a pwc, but that's what makes it so special.

She is most at home wherever there is an adventure on the horizon.
