Member since December 2019 Panama City Beach, United States
Background
One of my earliest memories is fishing for Redfish with my dad, we were wade fishing on the flats around Panama City Beach. When I was 12 my dad took me for my first fishing tournament, I won the junior Redfish Division and that was my turning point – I was hooked on catching Redfish for life! Nothing is more exciting than seeing my clients hooked up and I promise to give you my very best to make sure you have the best fishing trip ever!
Techniques
My favorite way to catch Redfish is to sight fish throwing artificial bait with light spinning tackle! But whatever method best fits the situation, I have the tackle needed for a successful day of fishing. My equipment is state of the art and includes some of the very best spinning and baitcasting tackle on the market.
