When it comes to the gear I use, I’m interested in one thing only: dependability. Whether I’m poling the shallow flats of the Florida Keys, gliding silently through mangrove tunnels, or pushing into hard-to-reach fishing spots, I rely on high-quality products that perform flawlessly every time. Out on the water, there’s no room for failure – every piece of gear I use has been tested in real-world conditions, proving its durability and reliability.
From my skiff and push pole to my rods, reels, and tackle, everything I carry serves a purpose and has earned its place through experience. From years of experience, I’ve learned that the right gear isn’t just about comfort, it’s about safety, efficiency, and delivering the best possible experience to my clients. I invest in products I trust because when you’re on the water, there’s no room for compromise.
The Whipray isn’t just a skiff; it’s a game-changer. Designed for precision and stealth, this boat allows me to access skinny waters where it would be impossible in most other skiffs. Its lightweight design and smooth handling ensure that I can pole effortlessly, and quietly.
Power and reliability are non-negotiable when you’re covering miles of open water or zipping between fishing spots. My Mercury Outboards R-60 gives me both. Its efficient performance and durability mean I can focus on what matters most—providing an unforgettable experience on the water.
When I need to go off the beaten path, the Wenonah ‘Backwater’ canoe is my go-to. Light enough to carry and rugged enough for the most remote journeys, it’s the perfect companion for exploring the seldom seen of the Everglades and beyond. Whether I’m chasing bass or just taking in the beauty of the Glades, this canoe gets the job done. I Spring Creek Outfitters Canoe stabilizer floats when standing and casting – and not falling overboard is critical!
‘If you’re a fellow angler or adventurer, remember: that dependable gear isn’t just an investment in your hobby or profession, it’s an investment in your passion.’
