On a personal note:

"I have been a full time fishing guide since 1993. Guiding has been my only source of income, and everything we own is from guiding fishermen. I started at 19 years old with only an old truck and a drift boat.

In April of 2015, I had a life-changing experience. I'm still here today only because of the grace of God and a great medical staff at UC Davis. As a result of that experience, my heart has softened with compassion and love, and my drive for success and catching fish has been taken to an even higher level.

Lots of things have changed since the early days, but one thing still remains the same: the love of the fish. I truly love fishing!  Being able to share with others and make a living is such a blessing.  I've been given so much from this business ... I'm truly blessed to give back.  All levels from beginning to experienced anglers are welcome!

I'm looking forward to taking care of you and your family or crew on the water. You will always receive 100% professionalism from me, and have a great fishing experience."
