Angler's Choice
The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.
I was born and raised in Cocoa Beach and grew up fishing on the Banana River. I also lived in Hawaii for 12 years, where I enjoyed surfing and fishing in the Pacific ocean. I retired from Brevard county fire rescue ,where I worked as a firefighter/paramedic for over 17 years. I also worked for the Ritz-Carlton hotel on Maui for more than 10 years and I understand the importance of customer service. Fishing has been a part of my life since I was a young child and I feel blessed to share my passion for fishing with others.
