Rob Tillitz

Raised on the California Coast in the small farm town of Pescadero, Rob spent his early years hunting and fishing after school and during the summer. In high school, Rob's family moved up the Coast to Half Moon Bay and Princeton Harbor with its fishing fleet.

That's how it all began. He went to work on those fishing boats. Later got his own boat and moved to Crescent City, CA, the heart of West Coast commercial salmon fishing, also prolific crabbing in the Winter.

He still owns a commercial salmon troller in Brookings, Oregon...the ANN...and fishes salmon when the government opens the season.
