I’ve been passionate about fishing since childhood, but kayak fishing took hold of me 17 years ago and quickly became an obsession—especially in the competitive scene. Over the years, I’ve racked up multiple wins in both sea and freshwater tournaments, including titles at the Oxwich and Llangorse European Championships. In 2022, I was crowned overall […]

These days, I mainly focus on kayak fishing in the Mediterranean, going after Sea Bass, Dentex, and various types of Mediterranean groupers. Ever since I started using Hobie Kayaks, my whole perspective on fishing has changed; […]

I’m a 22-year-old French angler with a passion for competitive kayak fishing, now entering my fourth season aboard a Hobie kayak. Living in Pornichet, France, I’m fortunate to have access to one of the best fishing spots for hunting marine predators, especially sea bass.

A few years ago, I wasn’t a fisherman—until a friend introduced me to Hobie kayaks, and I was instantly hooked. Since then, I haven’t looked back—I practically live on my kayak now (I even have two!). Based in Sofia, Bulgaria, I spend my winters fishing in nearby freshwater reservoirs. When summer comes, I head to […]

I’ve been passionate about fishing since childhood, and discovering kayak fishing opened up a whole new world for me. During the summer, I live on my sailing catamaran in Greece, where I have two Hobie Lynx kayaks and spend every day out on the water, fishing and exploring the sea.

Passionate about freshwater fishing since I was young, I wanted to indulge in sea fishing, but having a boat was not possible for me. But to fish at sea on a boat, the kayak was the best compromise. I have been fishing in a Hobie kayak for several years now and I do not regret […]

Fishing is my life. Fishing on the water has been my dream since I was a child. When I bought my first Hobie kayak, I felt very happy because I fulfilled something I had been waiting for my whole life. Being free, maneuverable, independent, being close to the water when I move on it, I […]

I was instantly drawn to the stealth and precision that kayak fishing offers. Living in Brittany, I’m lucky to have both the sea and freshwater close by, allowing me to adapt my fishing to the seasons. In the summer, I target Sea Bass and Black bass, while winter is all about Zander. I also compete […]
