What’s the biggest fish you’ve caught?
The biggest fish I have ever caught was a 95" Scalloped Hammerhead Shark in the Gulf of Mexico. He was way too big to get on the boat and 5" too short to keep!
If you were cooking for all your friends what would you cook?
I do a fish fry once a year when we have a large party at the house. Other than that, normally just make burgers on the grill.
What’s your favorite band?
Metallica is my favorite rock band. I listen to all kinds of music though, but have to say the old school Metallica is my favorite.
What’s your favorite movie?
My favorite movie is Top Gun and Top Gun 2.
What’s your favorite sports team?
Don't really watch sports that much unless it is fishing, lol!
What’s your drink of choice?
My drink of choice is Coke or Pepsi.
What was your last halloween costume?
Haven't had one of those since I was a kid. I think the last one I had one was a racecar driver. Which is another passion of mine, I have raced dirt track cars for over 20 years off and on.
What do you want for Christmas this year?
More fishing equipment or as my wife calls them, 'toys' lol.
How did you get started guiding?
Have always wanted to even when I was a kid. I had a chance to take the leap and start my own business a couple of years ago. So, I took this opportunity to live my dream and have my ideal dream job.
What makes you different from other guides?
I don't know about different but to me it's more of a passion than a job to me. For me it's watching the pure excitement of someone catching their 1st fish, biggest fish or even the 100th fish. To me a guide should be more about the passion of taking customers fishing and teaching the young and old anglers the importance conservation as well as some fishing tips.
When you step on my boat, you're a guest, but when you step back off the boat your family. It's all about making memories.
