MEET THE TEAM
Guide/Photographer
Jesse Males
As a native of Florida, I am constantly on the hunt for big saltwater fish but often can be found floating down jungle rivers for machaca or even serving up some dry flies to hungry trout. Bushwacking and remote beach camping are my favorite ways to explore Costa Rica. While fly fishing is my preferred method, I am just as comfortable slanging a spinning rod with a popper for tuna, roosters, and snapper.
Many of you may know me from my fly fishing business, Backwater Fly Fishing.
Guide/Jungle Bum
Micah Baly
Another native to Florida, Micah is a fun loving jungle bum who loves chasing machaca and every now and again gets a hankering for some offshore action or even some jungle tarpon fishing. He is an ocean kayak fishing beast that can be found 4 days into the backcountry or camped out on a remote beach waiting on that perfect tide.

If there was ever a dude that lives the “work hard, play hard” lifestyle, it is this dude right here. A lover of everything outdoors and a key player in the 506 Outdoors lineup. Aside from running his outdoor store, Stone Mountain Outdoors, here in Costa Rica, he can be found doing a trout fishing tour or machaca tour when the other guides are busy. Monster energy drinks and some frozen pizzas are all this dude needs to make it to his next adventure.
