Celebrating 16 years in the world of guiding, Travis is not just a guide and USCG captain; he's an expert casting instructor and seasoned fun loving angler with a passion for the great outdoors. Since childhood he has had an obsession for hunting and fly fishing and has traveled far and wide pursuing his passion while extending his guiding from the pacific and Alaska to subtropical and tropical regions around the world. Whether navigating the challenging deep canyon northwest rivers, the wild Alaskan terrain or tropical salt water environments Travis thrives on the thrill of the catch and the joy of sharing these experiences with fellow enthusiasts.

Before his career in guiding, Travis served our country honorably in the military's special operations command, contributing to the esteemed 75th Ranger Regiment. This chapter in his life not only instilled discipline and resilience but also provided him with a unique set of skills that set him apart in the world of fly fishing.

Beyond the riverbanks, Travis is a recognized writer and photographer, with his works featured in over a hundred nationally published titles covering a wide range of outdoor-related subjects. His ability to capture the essence of the great outdoors adds an extra layer to his storytelling, allowing readers to vicariously experience the thrill of the hunt and the tranquility of nature.

Yet, for Travis, it's not about dwelling on the past achievements. Instead, he remains focused on the future, grateful for the opportunity to fish in amazing places with equally amazing people.
