Member since March 2018 Panama City, United States
Background
I have loved being on the water since I was a child. I started my career at the Puget Sound in Seattle and then moved to California and started chasing German Brown’s and Rainbow Trout through the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California. During my college career at CSU Sacramento, I was introduced to chasing the fall run of Salmon in the local American Rivers. It wasn't long until I made it to the Pacific Ocean and found my passion of fishing on the big blue. I made my way to the Beautiful Gulf of Mexico a few years ago and I hope to share my broad knowledge of fishing different species and provide a great experience for you and your group. I have been running charter boats for the past 10 years and still have the same passion as the day that I started. Let's go Fishing!
Techniques
I always check with the weather forecast and fellow Captains to see what is biting and what the best course of action is for each particular day. I love to troll for pelagic fish and bottom fishing is fun because of the fast action.
