Member since December 2017 Yantis, United States
Background
I've been fishing Lake Okeechobee during the months of December, January, and February, for the past 30 years! I am a former Maintenance/Machinist for General Electric Corporation of 31 years. Our plant was purchased by a foreign company, and I was allowed to retire at age 49. So as I move forward in life, I decided I wanted to be a guide, and do what I love to do every day, fish! I have been doing it for a short time, but I have many returning clients, who are very satisfied with my performance and fish catching ability!
Techniques
I'm a 30 year Tournament Angler Veteran, I'm totally an Artificial Baits Angler, but I can put You on Shiner Fish just a easily!
