Meet the Team
Kacie Carrey
@kaaciie
Born and raised near the coasts of central Florida, Kacie has been fishing since she can remember. Mostly inshore as a child, but developed her love for offshore fishing about 6 years ago. She loves to target all trolling species, but some of her favorite catches to date are wahoo and sailfish. Her and her husband own a historic hotel with a bar and restaurant inside, so you can always count on them to keep the crew fed. Kacie is happiest on/near the water, especially if her dogs can tag along.
Tiffany Martin

This is Tiffany, 28! Born and raised in Fl and she'd never move. (She hates cold weather) A mama to two girls🎀 She's an ISR swim instructor and spends every day in the water. She loves to be on the water too! Fishing, scalloping, & catching Lobster. She says no fish tastes better than one you caught yourself.
Taylor Kinney
@_taylorkinney_16
Taylor is a passionate angler from Florida with offshore fishing being her favorite thing to do. Her favorite fish to target are wahoo, mahi and tuna. Often bringing her 2 kids who have been fishing since they could hold a rod!
Walt Kinney
@walt_31_
Born and raised on East Coast waters of Florida. Walt has been hooked on the Ocean Grown lifestyle his whole life. With a passion for offshore tournament fishing he loves to target all trolling species but Mahi specifically! When Walt is not at work, you can always find him on the water.
Julian Jones
@julianj__
Julian, aka Jules, grew up fishing as a child in Southeast Georgia. He moved with his family to Jacksonville, Florida where he spent his younger years surfing and inshore fishing. After the Army, he moved to Edgewater with his Fiancée, Lesley, and became the First Mate for Ocean Grown Gear’s 61’ Viking. Julian’s favorite species to target are Billfish, Mahi, or a nice Large Mouth Bass; “I just like fish that jump if you couldn’t tell.”
Tournament fishing has always been a dream of his and says it’s even better with the OG Team. He has a few species to still cross off his bucket list and hopes to make it to Costa Rica one day with Lesley and snag a Rooster Fish or two.
Lesley Winford
@lesleyyywinford
Lesley was born in California and grew up around the water. She spent summers traveling back and forth between Hawaii and Lake Tahoe where she spent all her time fishing, wake boarding, kayaking or playing mermaid. She moved to Florida in her mid twenties and has an even stronger connection with the water frequently fishing, scuba diving, or paddle boarding in the springs.
She can almost always be found around the OG Boat with her Fiancé Julian, when she’s not on duty!
If the fish aren’t biting she’s not afraid to do a dunkaroo or two, a lucky fish dance, or pull pranks on the rest of the OG crew in order to keep spirits high.
Female firefighter, Lady Angler, and Dog Mom, Lesley loves living life to the fullest and keeping it OG 🤙
