I have been fishing the backwaters of Cumberland Island, Georgia, with my father since I was a child. I am a third-generation fisherman learning many spots, techniques, and skills from my father and grandfather before me. I also participate in local fishing tournaments and I am a two-time local winner for both Redfish and Trout Species.
