Orlando was born in Jutiapa, Atlantida, Honduras. He acquired his love for fishing thanks to his relatives, since he was a child he was interested in fishing, so once they gave him the confidence to let him go out to the river, he would venture out to observe what he found in those waters. His destiny made him end up on the island of Roatan, forming a family and working with fishing. Orlando is one of our partner fisher in Honduras, helping to monitor sharks, rays and economically important fish in the Roatan area, of the Bay Islands.
