My name is Grant Alvis and I have been fishing from Hobie Kayaks for over 12 years. Living in Virginia has given me the opportunity to chase a wide variety of fresh and saltwater species. I am one of only 7 people in state history to reach level four freshwater Master Angler status with a trophy fish in 20 different species. I am also a Virginia saltwater master angler with 10 trophy fish in one year in atleast 5 species. I am the first angler in Virginia history to accomplish both of those tasks. While I love chasing anything that swims, my primary targets are Snakehead and Redfish in the warm months and Largemouth Bass and trophy Blue Catfish in the colder months. There's always something to fish for with the variety of species we have in Virginia and I do my best to spend time paying each one of them a visit.
