- Achtergrond
- I’ve been fishing longer than I’ve been walking. Raised on the water in South Florida, my earliest memories are aboard my father’s boat—line in the water before I could talk, steering the helm by the time I was five. For my 13th birthday, he handed me the keys to my own: a 13-foot Boston Whaler. By 15, I was navigating these waters solo, chasing fish from Key West to Jupiter. South Florida isn’t just where I’m from—it’s who I am. I’ve spent my life learning its tides and the rhythms of its fisheries. Every chance I’ve had, I’ve been out there—honing my instincts, respecting the water, and pursuing the next bite.
- Technieken
- My favorite targets are the pelagics offshore—wahoo, dolphin (mahi), and kingfish are always at the top of my list. I live for the speed, the power, and the unpredictability they bring. When I’m chasing a different kind of thrill, I’ll set up the kite and fly live baits for sailfish—there’s nothing like watching that bill pop up behind the bait. When the wind and current align just right, I shift gears and drop down over structure for mutton snapper and grouper—fishing deep, working the bottom, waiting for that unmistakable thump. And when the weather turns rough, I don’t head for home—I shift inshore. You’ll find me tucked into the mangroves or along seawalls, targeting sheepshead, jack crevalle, and even goliath grouper. No matter the conditions, I’m fishing. It’s not just a hobby—it’s how I was raised, and it's who I am.
