Howdy! I’d like to introduce myself — I’m a proud member of the loudest and the proudest! 🤘 Whoop! I hold a degree in Wildlife Biology and have been a licensed captain for 22 years. Fishing runs deep in my blood. I grew up in a family of anglers — my father was one of the top competitors in B.A.S.S., and I spent my childhood by his side on the water. At just seven years old, he handed me my first baitcasting rod and reel and taught me how to use it. From there, I fished countless bass tournaments alongside him and eventually turned my passion toward saltwater fishing.
Today, I fish professional redfish tours from the beautiful Texas coastline all the way to Louisiana, and I’ve competed in bass tournaments across the country, even as far as Florida. While I’ve been fortunate to place several times, my proudest moment was winning a tournament with my late wife, Shelley — a memory I’ll always hold close to my heart.
My goal is to give you more than just a trip...
