Nicholas Henriksen 

Matt Baker

Tony Chipman 

Tony Faggioni

Jarvis Williams

I am not going to lie. When I saw this name go up on the board I got a bit nervous. Matt Baker from Beach Buzz has a stiff reputation for putting some studs on the beach In Navarre.

But, word around the tackle shop is that Matt’s son catches these beast, and Matt just claims them on camera.

Jarvis Williams from Gulfcoastfishing 850 won like 48 Pompano contests in two weeks this past Spring.

Don't worry competitors. Jarvis has been playing so much softball that I feel he is as rusty as a once a year fisherman's tackle box.

Arinton Mercado from Reel Addicted Adventures has been a huge part of my fishing in Perdido Key. Basically, I drive around and look for his truck. When I find it, I mark where he is fishing on Google Maps. I have a funny feeling we will be bumping into each other on the beach during the tournament.

I definitely have my eye on Tony Chipman from Tony Tackle. This guy spends more time on Fort Pickens beach than Fred. 

But I have noticed that Tony still has a lot of Kentucky in him, and is under the assumption that catfish are a trophy species.

And then there was Tony Faggionifrom FishGum. I have seen Tony use crawfish, lobster, ghost shrimp, synthetic baits, canned tuna, Slim Jims, and gummy worms to target pompano on a 4-foot rod.
This guy could be trouble.

Angela Bruce Boutte has been a staple in my everyday fishing. Sometimes I feel Clint gets in trouble because of all the tackle we are “testing”. They have turned that little tackle shop into something I feel proud to be associated with.

This fella said he was driving from Arkansas to fish the tournament. He doesn't look like much competition.

Check him out!

These glasses have helped out my game on the surf and in the kayak. 

Straight out of Jacksonville Florida, this company knows what Florida fishermen need.

Korey Popplewell will travel up and down Florida chasing pompano. It's impressive. He does this so much that he has burned through all his PTO for the year and can't make the tournament. Lucky for us. Here is a video I shot with Korey 5 minutes after meeting him. 

Chip Brundage has been a huge part of nailing down my pompano hunting skills. I had the pleasure of being invited to Chip’s house not too long ago, and was blown away by his hospitality. Chip does not mind sharing his secrets on the beach and makes some of the best Sputnik sinkers on the market. Here is one of my favorites by Chip.

Fishbites Brett Burford and Fishbites Trading Post hold a special place in my fisherman's heart. The professionalism of this company goes without words. They have made me feel like part of their family from the beginning of our relationship. Here is a video I shot inside Fishbites Trading Post. What an awesome day. 

Mari Tirado has broken into the fishing world by designing graphics for Lost Key Outdoors, Frisky Fins, KPOPP's Pompano Rigs, Jarvis Williams, Reel Addicted Adventures, Tony Chipman, and PerdidoBlane. Her work ethic is unreal as she is in school, works, has two young boys, and is raising me.
