CAPTAIN CHRIS SEGER
COULD PRETEND THAT BIG BASS WAS GOING TO BE, I WOULD CAST THOSE PLUGS GRANDPA LEFT ME.
I CHOSE TO VENTURE OFF TO MEMPHIS TENNESSEE FOR ART COLLEGE AFTER HIGH SCHOOL. IT WAS A FUN EXPERIENCE BUT THE MISSISSIPPII RIVER WAS A FAR CRY FROM COAST OF FLORIDA. IT DIDN'T TAKE LONG FOR ME TO FIGURE OUT I NEEDED TO TRANSFER TO SARASOTA, WHERE THERE WAS AN ART SCHOOL AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, SALTWATER! I RACED DOWN HERE, GOT TO FISHING, AND CAUGHT A SPECIES I HAD NEVER CAUGHT BEFORE. I WAS SOON ADDICTED TO SNOOK FISHING! I GREW UP SEEING THEM IN FLORIDA SPORTSMAN AND NOW I COULD CATCH THEM IN MY BACKYARD, I WAS IN HEAVEN! AFTER FISHING MY WAY THROUGH ART SCHOOL I SOON REALIZED THAT I COULDN'T JUST LEAVE ALL THIS FISHING BEHIND IN HOPES OF FINDING ANOTHER PLACE TO MAKE A CAREER IN ART POSSIBLE.
I MET A FEW GOOD FISHING BUDDIES WHILE HERE IN COLLEGE AND THEY STARTED GUIDE FISHING BUSINESSES THAT WERE SUCCESSFUL. WITH ALL THE FISHING EXPERIENCE I HAD GAINED OVER THE YEARS AND A GOOD OPPORTUNITY WITH THE START UP HELP, I DECIDED TO GIVE IT A SHOT. THOUGH BEING A GUIDE TURNS FISHING INTO WORK, IT'S BEEN EIGHT YEARS NOW AND I STILL ENJOY EVERY DAY ON THE WATER! I HEAR IT ALL THE TIME,"YOU GOT THE BEST DAMN JOB THERE IS"! MAYBE? FISHING IS IN MY BLOOD AND I ENJOY SHARING TIPS AND THE LITTLE THINGS I HAVE LEARNED WITH FELLOW ANGLERS AND NEW FRIENDS.
AS FOR MY ARTIST ASPIRATION? I STILL LOVE TO DRAW AND PAINT WHEN I'M NOT ON THE WATER. I AM MOST INSRIRED BY THE THINGS I OBSERVE IN NATURE AND FIND COOL LITTLE PAINTINGS ON ALMOST EVERY FISHING TRIP. AS AN ARTIST ONE COULD PAINT A GLASS CALM MORNING WITH THE REDFISH TAILING. BUT IN THAT REDFISH PAINTING, ITS HARD TO HEAR THE SILENCE BEING BROKEN BY A DISTANT CHIRP OF AN OSPREY OR A SNOOK POPPING BAIT IN THE MANGROVES. INSHORE FISHING OFFERS A LOT MORE THAN REELING IN FISH AND THAT'S PROBABLY THE REASON I PREFER IT PERSONALLY.

CAPTAIN STACY CAPPS WAS BORN IN THE PANHANDLE OF FLORIDA AND GREW UP FISHING AROUND THE PANAMA CITY AREA UNTIL MOVING AWAY FOR COLLEGE. MY GRANDFATHER PASSED AWAY WHEN I WAS EIGHT YEARS OLD SO I DIDN'T HAVE TOO MANY YEARS WITH HIM TO FISH, BUT THE MEMORIES AND PASSION THAT I GAINED FROM THOSE TRIPS WOULD STAY WITH ME FOREVER! I CAN REMEMBER AS A KID FISHING ANYWHERE THERE WAS WATER, DITCHES, MUD PUDDLES, WHEREVER I
