The Guide
An outdoorsman since he was a child, Judson developed his love for being on the water with his dad at Topsail Beach, North Carolina. In his early youth, he began hunting waterfowl along the coastal river’s, marsh’s and Sounds of the North Carolina Coast as well as the inshore and nearshore waters of the Outer Banks and the Pamlico Sound. After college, he decided to follow his passion and pursue a full-time career Fishing and Hunting. Judson’s love for the outdoors has taken him around the world and he has had the opportunity to guide in incredible places! He’s guided in Alaska, Montana, Wyoming, Louisiana, Virginia, Tennessee, and the Florida Keys. With 20+ years of waterfowl experience now he focuses all his time here in North Carolina. Judson says his favorite part about being a guide is the relationships he has built on the water with his clients.
