Member since March 2020 Big Pine Key, United States
Background
I was born in California and grew up in Colorado. I went to the University of Colorado at Denver and did the desk job life which I quickly found out was not for me. I decided to move to the Keys to pursue my passion of fly fishing and guiding on the flats. I have been an avid fisherman my entire life there is nothing quite like being on the water with friends and family. I love the connection it brings!
Techniques
Fly fishing is by far my favorite style of fishing. It's a way of fishing that makes you feel connected with the fish. The pursuit of permit, bonefish and tarpon on the flats is an obsession and sharing that obsession with other people is my addiction!
