Brian Preston

Member since April 2015 Port Aransas, United States
Background
I have always enjoyed the outdoors and everything it has to offer. I became a Marine in 1983, right out of high school. It wasn't until I started attending TAMU that my liking for the outdoors grew into an obsession with the outdoors. I graduated in 1991 with a degree in Fisheries and Wildlife Biology. I began traveling the different regions in the US, including Alaska to hunt and fish, however, nothing beat the South Texas tug of a Redfish in knee-deep water or the shaking pull of a Trout. As a result, I moved to Rockport in 1993. I got married in 1994, and we now have 4 awesome kids, 1 Marine, 2 Aggies, and our bonus baby who just turned 12. Life is good!
Techniques
I offer different styles of fishing. If you prefer to focus mainly on redfish I have a 25 foot airboat to tackle the bay flats wading . Or if getting in water is not a good fit for you, I have a 23 ft. Haynie that can take us to the redfish and the trout. Either way, we are set up to catch the fish of a lifetime. Kids are always welcome.
