I’m a small-town guy with grand aspirations in the world of kayak fishing! My journey with fishing began at a young age, accompanying my grandpa and dad in pursuit of panfish. However, during my high school years, my best friend persuaded me to give bass fishing from a kayak a try. From the very first trip, I knew I had discovered my lifelong passion.
I initially honed my skills by participating in local kayak fishing trails for several years. Then, in the 2022 season, I took a significant step by venturing into the Hobie BOS (Bass Open Series), a national trail series. In my debut year on the national stage, I achieved commendable results, including multiple top 30 finishes and a remarkable 2nd place at Chickamauga, which earned me a coveted spot in the Tournament of Champions.
In 2023, I expanded my horizons by competing in various events, including the Hobie BOS, Bassmaster series, and the TN BASS Nation. I secured a notable 2nd place finish at the Guntersville’s No Limits tournament and, most impressively, clinched the title of TN BASS State Champion for the 2023 season. This achievement qualified me for the upcoming Bassmaster Kayak Championship in March.
I’m eagerly anticipating the challenges and adventures the next season will bring, and I’m ready to make it another memorable year on the water.
