How did you get started guiding?

My YouTube subscribers encouraged me to become a fishing guide because they enjoyed the way I teach and explain fishing. I’ve always enjoyed helping people learn, and guiding gave me the opportunity to share that experience on the water.

What makes you different from other guides?

I’m patient, easygoing, and enjoy teaching. I work well with beginners, kids, families, and experienced anglers, and I tailor each trip to my customers so everyone can have an enjoyable day on the water.
