41-year-old saltwater kayak angler out of Sonoma County, Northern California. Production Manager by day, Fish_Forage_Off-Roader on the weekend. Saltwater kayak fishing for 14 years. Ocean saltwater tournaments the last four years, with one second place finish. Father to two boys, husband of 15 years to my amazing wife Lisa. When I'm not out kayak fishing, I'm exploring the beautiful Northern California backroads with the family in our Off-Road Toyota Tacoma.
Using no motor, I can paddle my kayak a little over 4 miles per hour and maintain 3 miles an hour for some distance!
Favorite Technique: Vertical Jigging for giant lingcod/rock fish and cabezon.
Body of Water: Saltwater Northern California.
Most Confident Lure: Madame Lures baby lingcod colored swimbait.

I'm a gigantic fishing nerd from Michigan. I didn't grow up a fisherman, but after my father in-law started me down the path catching carp, catfish and bass at the family cottage I never looked back. I love kayak fishing the river and building kayaks that make everyone on IG go "should have bought a boat!!"
Favorite Technique: Jigs have skyrocketed up my list of favorite techniques! They're so versatile and the hooksets are PEAK!
