Hometown: New Orleans, LA

 

Age: 29

 

Occupcation: Sales Engineer

 

Favorite technique: Flipping heavy cover / grass fishing

 

Primary strength: Flipping / pitching

 

Secondary strength: Power fishing with spinnerbaits and crankbaits in shallow water

 

Biggest challenges: Multiple day events continue to challenge me, but the more I fish, the more I improve. However as I continue applying the basics, I see this as merely a temporary hurdle. Rivers are also challenging, but as the more I understand current, the better I fish rivers.

 

Boat / motor: Skeeter 20i / Yamaha 250 HPDI

 

My hero: My Dad because he taught me about respecting the talents of others at a young age. I have always enjoyed and admired those who excel at what they do because they work hard.

 

Angling hero: Tim Horton, because when he finds fish and wins a tournament, he doesn’t give the other anglers a chance.

 

Home lake: Lake Catouache near the Bayou Segnette boat launch, but the beauty of New Orleans is having three great fisheries within 30 minutes of each other.

 

Favorite lakes: Carnarveron- I always manage to catch solid sacks and have a great time doing it. Toledo Bend - Toledo has been challenging, but I have caught some good fish here and it is a great place for learning deep structure.

 

Least favorite: I accept the challenge anywhere, although I tend to struggle when I am fishing deep lakes over multiple days when limited practice happens.
