After getting his captain’s license, he began by running Biloxi fishing charters for local companies as a part-time relief captain.&nbsp;&nbsp;Later on, he also shifted to take on Biloxi charters for many of the top-rated companies in the coastal area—this is where he earned his reputation as a reliable captain who could put his customers on the fish.
