I am a San Diego native who grew up fishing all over San Diego both salt/freshwater. At the age 13, I volunteered on the half day boat "Daily Double" to learn the ropes. By 16 years old, I began work on the "Edna Luella", a commercial net boat for swordfish and sharks.
At age of 18, I would fish both San Diego's bays 200-250 days a year. I fell in love with the diversity of fish species, setting and over all feel of San Diego. I knew I would never leave, and someday start a business in the fishing industry.
In 2004 I began work on a six pack sportfishing vessel the "Penetrator". We would hunt the Pacific for pelagic species such as Tuna, Dorado, Yellowtail, Marlin and much more. I learned excellent client service/satisfaction from 5 years on the "Penetrator".
