WHO INTRODUCED YOU TO FISHING?

The family has a lakehouse in deep East Texas on a lake Murvaul and boating/fishing are a part of the outdoors lifestyle when its not hunting season in Texas.

ARE YOU REALLY RELATED TO BEAR?

It’s rumored that a Bear does share the deck with me when money is on the line!

HOW HAS BEING A FLORIDA KEYS GUIDE CHANGE THE WAY YOU FISH?

Being a Florida Keys guide teaches you the importance of versatility and efficiency! Both are the principles I employ daily!

IF THERE WAS ONLY ONE PLACE YOU FISH FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE AND YOU WERE ONLY ALLOWED TO FISH THERE, WHERE WOULD YOU FISH AND WHY?

If I was the only one allowed to fish a spot and only one spot the rest of my life I’d probably never fish again. Fishing is about sharing experiences and making memories for a lifetime of reflection when it’s not so easy!

DO YOU BELIEVE BANANAS ON THE BOAT ARE BAD LUCK?

Superstition is an excuse for poor planning! But I love messing w those who believe!

WHAT HAS BEEN THE MOST MEMORABLE FISH CAUGHT SO FAR ON A REEL FROM FFP?

The most memorable catch on FFP so far was a Permit we (PHD Jake Brownscombe BTT) surgically implanted another acoustic tag into for #projectpermit coincidentally it was the first cast I made w a FFP reel!
