In this episode, I sit down with Emanuel Williams, an avid jet ski fisherman and social media creator, to discuss his unique journey in the fishing world. 

Emanuel shares how his passion for fishing developed from childhood outings with his dad in Florida to adventurous deep-sea escapades on a SeaDoo. 

We dive into his incredible experiences, including catching giant fish like swordfish and cobias, exploring The Bahamas, and navigating the challenges of offshore fishing. 

Emanuel also talks about his social media journey, favorite platforms, and future plans, including his new 27-foot Sea Lion boat. Don't miss this exciting and insightful conversation with one of the most innovative fishing content creators around!
