Since moving in the area back in 1999, Captain Devin Anderson has been fishing the local waters non-stop. He's a full-time paramedic, but that has not stopped him from taking part in and winning at several inshore tournaments. He loves the feel of being on the water and anticipating the next bite that's just around the corner.
