Originally from Madisonville, currently live in BR for LSU, moving to Lafayette for Grad School this summer.

Can't remember my first time fishing... so young. Family owned an on-the-water camp off Bay Batiste, that Katrina took from us. Best times of my life at that camp. Would always go fishing with my uncle but mostly my papa in our little 18' War Eagle flat. Remember vividly fishing off the end of the dock after duck hunts in the winter, we would clean 'em and take the gizzards throw 'em on a hook and pull up some damn nice redfish sometimes drum, but mostly redfish.

I can thank mostly my papa and uncles for teaching me what I know now. Papa always took me fishing. Godfather/uncle took me duck hunting alot and offshore fishing, also bought me all the guns I own as well as preached to me about safety. Another uncle always took me deer hunting, killed my first deer with him at 13 I think.

Currently holding:

Remington 700 .243
Benelli SBEII
Old Remington 870 Youth Magnum 20 gauge

Deer hunt: Utica, MS
Duck hunt: Big Branch NWR
Fish: wherever I can get a ride.
