I founded Anglers Unlimited because it was what I wished I had when I started fishing. I grew up walking the beaches in South Puget Sound and have always spent time near the water, but never actually on a boat until I was in my 20’s.

My first boat came with a manual cannon downrigger and sent me on a journey to figure out how to use it for salmon fishing. I soon realized there was a lot to figure out about fishing the San Juan Islands and the Salish Sea and landing that first fish was freaking hard as a newbie to the sport. When I finally did catch my first winter blackmouth, it ruined me.

I was HOOKED on that incredible feeling I got from reeling in that salmon. It took years to dial in my process and really feel confident as a boater and angler. The more success I had fishing, the more fun it became to take others out and share the experience with them.

I knew through experience that there was a need for beginners out there to get access to the resources they needed to shortcut the steep learning curve of fishing, which is why I am so excited to take what I have learned from experts and experience and share it with our incredible community. The best part of fishing… the learning NEVER stops!
