I’m a very passionate person about the outdoors and the lifestyle. I love fishing and have experience with lure fishing. I have spent sometime kayaking out in the Silver Creek area and very much love the area. I have experience lure fishing the Big Wood River down in the Hailey Idaho area. It’s important to me to stay in shape in order to live the outdoors lifestyle.
