SHOW HOST
JARED RASKOB
He’s led anglers to more tournament victories than any guide his age. Other guides will tell you he has a “sixth sense” for finding hungry fish. (Guiding over 300 days a year might have something to do with that.) At the age of seven, Jared’s parents gave him his first skiff whereupon he immediately began exploring the local waters. And now, twenty-some years later, Jared is host and co-owner of Silver Kings.
Jared first picked up a fly rod at the age of thirteen and spent his adolescence fine-tuning his craft. Upon turning nineteen, Jared became a licensed guide. And he’s never looked back. His career and reputation have been established by winning many highly competitive tournaments and through the positive accolades he has received from clients and friends alike. His proudest professional achievement was winning the 2015 Gold Cup Tarpon Tournament. Through his knowledge and dedication to the sport, Jared hopes to create the same thrill that he experiences daily for each and every angler that ever watches the show, or steps onto his boat.
CO-OWNER, GUIDE & PHOTOGRAPHER
Capt. Greg Dini
Greg was born in Orlando, Florida and began fishing at a very young age, fishing the lakes and ponds for bass and bream. Greg graduated to the saltwater environment at the age of 10, when his family bought a condo on the east coast of Florida. Greg mastered his home waters in Mosquito Lagoon while in high school and made trips every other weekend to the west coast of Florida to fish the Charlotte Harbor area.
Greg played sports growing up and received a scholarship to play division one baseball at the University of Miami. This is where Greg’s addiction began. Greg would fish all day, play baseball in the afternoons, and had all of his classes scheduled at night. After Greg’s sophomore year at UM, he was transferred to play baseball at Tulane University in Uptown, New Orleans. Greg quickly became master of this local fishery that he had moved into and was out on the water in no time.
Greg is an all around athlete from playing collegiate baseball to being a competitive angler & guide. Greg is most proud of his wife, Courtney & their 3 children. Greg is co-owner of both Silver Kings & the Sail Kings series. Greg brings another one of his passions to both shows with his amazing still photography.
