I started fishing at a young age here in South Louisiana, thanks mostly to my mother and father. Hardly a weekend went by that we were not fishing at our camp located in the Atchafalaya Basin. I was very fortunate to have spent my childhood in the swamps fishing, hunting, and trapping alligators in September, as well as spending time with my family.

As I got older, I would venture out by taking trips to the coast. I would fish from daylight to dark, catching redfish and speckled trout. At the age of seventeen, I started fishing offshore and my love for the ocean would keep me coming back with every invite I would get. I started to explore areas south of Cocodrie and to the east over in Venice, amazed at the amount of fish to be caught.

Through the years and with the passing of my mother, I spent a lot of time offshore on my own boat. Each time, I would realize that I did not want to go back every Monday to the daily grind of traffic and concrete. After fourteen years in business, I hung my coat up to pursue my dream of offshore fishing.

I spent several years deckhanding for some of the best names in the business and I am grateful to them for the knowledge. Afterwards, I have ventured out on my own and started Pelagic Charters LL that is based in Venice, LA.

I have a 33 ft. Contender that has a full complement of Furuno electronics and I would go fishing in exclusively all Shimano standup gear. Other than this, I am offering day trips for tuna, wahoo, dolphin, and marlin, as well as overnight trips to green canyon. Custom jigging and swordfish trips are available as well.
