How did you get started guiding?
I’ve been an avid outdoorsman my entire life, I was a part time guide with a day job until almost 20 years ago, 2007 I was laid off from my day job and became a full time guide.
What makes you different from other guides?
I’m local with a lifetime of experience, I grew up recreationally, tournament and commercially fishing which build my foundation for becoming a professional guide. As I’ve seen our resource changing I’ve tried to adapt and become a better steward by not being wasteful yet still harvesting lots of tasty seafood in a responsible manner.
