About Me

I'm an avid surf fisherman on the Florida Panhandle that loves fishing from the beach for Pompano, Redfish, Black Drum, Spanish Mackerel, Whiting, and Sharks.

 I fish nearly everyday half the year when I'm not working on a deepwater oil rig. I have learned how to judge and read the surf and where to fish depending on the surf conditions. You don't have to own an outboard to catch big quality fish, you can do it by just standing on the sand if you know what to look for. 

For more pics and videos of all my catches using Bullbuster, you can follow me on my Instagram account @pompano_hunter.
