Captain Shaw Underwood
Born and raised in Spanish Wells. Guiding the flats of North Eleuthera for most of his life.
I was born on this water.
Spanish Wells is a fishing settlement, and growing up here meant growing up in boats: on the flats, on the reef and out past the drop. Bonefishing is the part of it I love most. Poling a skiff across a flat with the engine off, reading the water for a tail or a shadow, and putting someone on their first fish or their biggest never gets old. The flats of North Eleuthera are home water for me, and I would rather fish them well with a few people than run a fleet.
How I guide
Patient with beginners, because everyone was one. Relentless with the anglers who want a big fish, because I want it too. Honest about the weather, the tide and what is biting.
Credentials
Licensed Bahamian guide, boat registered and insured. Catch and release on every bonefish.
