Rhode Island

I started kayak fishing in 2010 and finally got into a Hobie Revolution back in 2015. The Hobie Mirage Drive technology allowed my catch rate to increase dramatically.
I fish competitively in the On The Water Striper Cup since 2010 and regularly finish in the top ten of the kayak division. I have also enjoyed placing in several tournaments including the 2022 Coastal Kayak Clash run by The Fisherman magazine and the 2023 Rhode Island Tog Classic put on by CraftyOne Customs.
I like to target several saltwater species and this past year have started to fish for freshwater species as well.
