Capt. Jeff Legutki
At the spry age of fifty, Jeff Legutki is in the prime of his life. Born and raised in Naples, he’s had a prolific life with the water. Prior to his grandfather introducing him to his first fly rod, Jeff was a typical adventurous, Florida kid who surfed the best shore breaks and chased snook and redfish on topwater plugs. His aspirations for both filled his heart. As a young man he followed his dreams aggressively and at one time professional surfing was his goal....
Once he realized that wasn’t realistic he started pushing his skiff deeper into the 10,000 Islands of the surrounding Everglades. The challenge of finding the variety of fish that swam in its shallow water became his true calling. He loved being alone with the elements of hide and seek, surrounded by birds, alligators, mangroves, and when the season was right the large tarpon lying in skinny water.
He excelled at it and became popular with his clients that sang his praises. When the word got out, he became a target for others to see where and how he was fishing. With the growing popularity of the sport and number of new boats on the water the vastness of his domain started to close in on him. So he pushed his limitations harder, diving deeper into the labyrinth of islands and became even better.
Jeff is an inspiration for living life fully. His family is full of love with a beautiful wife and five kids.
At some point we will spend more time with this free spirited surfer who is a superstar fisherman. We can’t wait!
