Taylor Horrell

Member since May 2022 Topsail Beach, United States
Background
Growing up on the intracoastal waterway, becoming a fisherman happened naturally. Fishing has always been something I loved doing. For me, "work" doesn't feel like work and for that, I am blessed. Since high school, I have been working in the commercial fishing industry in a local fish house. A few years later, I began running a commercial fishing vessel. After getting married & having children, I decided to take to chartering to be home with my family a bit more. Fishing is what I love & all that I know.
Techniques
I enjoy trolling for pelagic species and bottom fishing for reef fish & grouper.
