Meet Katie

Katie C. Sawyer is a 100 GT licensed Captain, mate, tournament angler, published scientist, media personality, and poodle mom. She has worked the pit and fished professionally in many locations around the world, including, but not limited to, Baja California, Costa Rica, Panama, Australia, Madeira, and the Canary Islands.

Her fishing focus is on pelagic species, primarily billfish, from light to heavy IGFA rated tackle. Some of Katie’s accomplishments include releasing over 3,000 billfish, tying the Canarian record of 8 giant bluefin tuna releases in a single day, and traveling over 20,000 miles at sea. When not working on a boat, Katie enjoys fly fishing and sourcing her own meat via freedive spearfishing and all terrain bow hunting.
