Meet Captain Tony

Captain Tony Janik

Bio: Capt. Tony Janik has spent most of his life in or around the water surrounding Northeast Florida. He has pursued various interests including surfing, skateboarding and mountain biking, but has been drawn to the water and more specifically, the pursuit of fish since he was a child. What began as curiosity and hands deep in a bucket of baitfish quickly developed into a lifelong passion.

Capt. Tony Specializes in shallow water redfish. With his experience, you will be guided to conditions that are favorable for stalking and sight fishing redfish in low and flood tidal conditions. Depending on the time year and the behavior of the fish, you will be put into casting position and exposed to heart pumping redfish activity such as waking, backing, feeding and the infamous-tailing. Capt. Tony is also an avid fly tyer, this coupled with his knowledge of the local fishery will have you throwing true and tried patterns that catch fish.

Capt. Tony’s personality can be characterized as a good balance of patience and enthusiasm which enables him to comfortably provide guidance as needed to anglers, no matter their skill set. 

When off the water, Capt. Tony is found enjoying time with his beautiful wife, three children and their chocolate lab (and tying flies).
