Member since February 2023 Gulf Breeze, United States
Background
My earliest memories are mostly standing near a pond with a cane pole snagging Channel Cats and Goggle Eyes. I was hooked at a very young age, daydreaming about the giant fish that were lurking in every roadside pond (something I still do). Around 8th grade my parents got a boat and bought me a subscription to Saltwater Sportsman. I proceeded to try every tip and trick inside and with so many types of fish and techniques for catching them, let's just say I caught the fever. I started deck-handing on a head boat in 2006 taking up to 45 passengers, 2008 I had jumped ship with my captain to a smaller walk-on vessel fishing 15, most recently I spent 8 years working on a private multi-passenger catering up to 28. I love taking people offshore to experience our beautiful waters and amazing fishery.
Techniques
While you may catch me in my kayak or wading grass flats, fishing our artificial and natural reefs offshore is by far my favorite fishery. There is such a wide array of species that you never know what surprise you might find on these reefs. I prefer fishing lighter tackle on most rods, even freelining baits when conditions allow it. We will usually keep an unmanned line out for pelagics on the surface and one deep for any big surprises lurking below.
