Steve Chapman
Steve was born and raised in Michigan, where he spent many summers in Algonac. He would get up early, ride his bike to pick up bait (worms) and then fish for Perch at the end of the dock that belonged to neighbors. His father, David Chapman, also enjoyed fishing, and the two would go fishing for Bass, Walleye and anything that would hit his bait when he was younger.

Around the age of 16, Steve's family moved to Central Florida and a couple years later the fishing bug hit him in full force. He went from fishing retention ponds in Lake Mary for Bass, to wading many of the inshore waters on the East Coast. Steve's passion for fishing led him to taking private fly fishing lessons from renowned fly fisherman, Jon Cave. In the last several years, Steve has been fly fishing out West numerous times, the Florida Keys to many times to count, North Georgia, British Columbia, and learning the Mosquito Lagoon and Indian River in his 16' Waterman. Steve believes in CPR. (Catch, Photo and Release)
