Born and raised in Louisiana, Steve was fortunate enough to win a qualifying event with the IFA that allowed him to compete and win in his first Hobie Kayak Fishing Worlds in The Netherlands in 2014.

When I was six years old, I started to learn traditional fishing. After Lure fishing came into China, I had a strong interest in Lure Fishing, I am good at precise and selective throwing.

I enjoy not only the pleasure of nature, but also experience a different life.I often participate in all kinds of fishing competitions both domestic and abroad from 2013-2018, and achieved good results. Last year, I lead China team won the Denmark and China friendship ocean fishing competition, and then qualified to participate the Hobie Fishing Worlds 8 competition.

In my view, many practical fishing techniques are accumulated in the research. Only by constantly summing up experience in fishing, we can constantly improve ourselves.With my own Lure fishing Club, the focus of the current work is to promote and publicize eco-friendly Lure fishing, a healthy and environmentally friendly fishing sport.

I feel very privileged to have been able to represent Australia in seven Hobie Fishing World Championships.

To be able to fish the world as I’ve done is not something everyone has had the opportunity to do and I’ve been very lucky to have experienced the fish and more importantly the people.

Just about my whole life I have fished and caught my first fish at age 3 and it has stayed with me till aged 47 and I’m very sure it will be the last thing I will be doing when I go!

Marty has been kayak fishing for over ten years and thanks to his affiliation with Hobie and his career as a Naval Aviator has had the pleasure to fish in some of the countries’ best and most diverse fisheries from the Coast of Maine to South Texas and everywhere in between.
