Member since May 2018 Pass Christian, United States
Background
As early as I can remember, my dad would take me fishing and I immediately developed a passion for it. After graduating from Southern Miss. University I got my license and began my journey in the fishing industry. I am also an avid tournament angler. I have fished Redfish tournaments such as the IFA and the Tito's Tour and also other rodeos along the Gulf Coast area. I have a wonderful supporting family. My wife Allison and 2 girls Ava and AnnaRie. I love sharing my passion with them and with others. Seeing the excitement in someone when they catch their first Redfish is what it's all about! When you book a charter with us we are dedicated to giving you the best experience possible.
Techniques
The Mississippi River dictates how we fish down in Venice. During the Spring and Summer months the River is typically high and muddy, driving the bait and fish to the outer bays. We fish the points and pockets throwing popping corks and live shrimp. When the River begins to fall and clean up the fish move into the canals and cuts leading to the River. We throw a mixture of popping corks, spoons and jigging the bottom.
