Meet the Team

Hayden was born and raised in Fort Walton Beach and has been working with Emerald Coast Bait and Tackle for over two years. In addition to working in the shop, Hayden leads kayak fishing excursions and works as a deck hand on fishing charters. Hayden loves anything outdoors, and when he is not fishing in the winter months, you can find him in the woods bow hunting. Hayden attributes his love for the outdoors to his dad who was a big fisherman, but that passion spread into hunting with friends as he got older.
