Skimmer Outdoors began in 1992 producing instructional fishing videos. They were an instant hit with the fishing community and continue to sell very well. Skimmer outdoors began in 1997 with the launch of our website. Once again it was an instant hit for those that had Internet availability in those early years. Today www.skimmeroutdoors.com is “Go To” website within the fishing community. Our interactive fishing blog is growing at an alarming pace allowing our followers to upload their own daily prized catch and encouraged releases. We also have a very successful e-commerce store for our followers to purchase the “Captain AL custom bait rigs” that have proven to be unmatched for artificial and live bait fishing along with many other products. In recent years Capt. Rich Santos a long time IGFA Certified Capt./Guide has joined the team and has become an integral part of the Skimmer outdoors.
