Background
Fishing is not just a sport or a hobby, it's a way of life. To be out on the water at sunrise and see the beauty of God's creation in the beautiful colors as they come up over the horizon makes my office one of the best places to be. I have fished since I was 4 years old with my first Snoopy pole. I have loved fishing ever since, I have spent countless days running the bayous and bays of South Louisiana catching everything from fish, shrimp, and crabs. I enjoy sharing the knowledge that I have gained over the years with each of my clients. I have fished the waters of Shell Beach, Delacroix and Hopedale since I was around 8 years old. I would love to have you join me on an adventure of a lifetime. "Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day, teach a man to fish and he will eat for a lifetime"
Techniques
Inshore Redfish and Spec. Trout fishing. I use both live and artificial baits.
