Being born and raised around the surrounding waters of South Florida, it didnā€™t long to catch the ā€œFishing Bugā€. From catching bass with my father ever since I could walk to poling a technical skiff in the beautiful waters of Biscayne bay, The Everglades, and the Upper Florida Keys, every trip hoists new opportunities and experiences that continue to fuel my passion and hope to pass and instill this incredible feeling to you!
