e is Capt. Joshua Taylor, and I reside in the South Shore area. I have been fishing the waters of the Tampa Bay for the past 20 years. My plan is to have my passion exude throughout the local and internet community, helping people engage with the outdoors. I am an apparel designer, author and licensed USCG captain.

We strive to create a line of apparel that will withstand the elements and protect the consumer.
