Member since March 2017 Port Aransas, United States
Background
I was born and raised here in Port Aransas and I’ve been fishing these waters for over 30+ years. I try and fish 360 days a year whether it’s with clients or myself, so to say I’ve got lots of knowledge of the surrounding bays. I like to site cast for Redfish.

I like to site cast redfish
