A well-known television personality, he gained widespread recognition for his appearances on the reality TV show Swamp People. As a third-generation fisherman, he carries on a proud family tradition that has been passed down through the years. In addition to his television career, he is the owner of the popular seafood company St. Mary, which has become a well-respected name in the industry.
Long before he became a familiar face on TV, he spent much of his early life out on the water, fishing with his family. This deep-rooted connection to the trade played a major role in shaping who he is today. In 2016, he made his debut on Swamp People, marking the beginning of a new chapter in his life and career.
He was previously married to his first wife, Juanita, who sadly passed away in 2018. Together, they raised two sons, Joey and Dwaine, who remain an important part of his life. Later, he married his second wife, Mandy, and the couple shared a daughter named Danielle before eventually going their separate ways.
Today, he enjoys spending time with his grandson, Dorien, continuing to pass down the values and traditions that have defined his life both on and off the screen.
He’s the proud owner of Louisiana Bait Products, a well-known agricultural product wholesaler based in the heart of Louisiana. People often refer to him as the Creole Patriarch—a name that carries deep respect and tradition. He is of Creole descent and has spent much of his life not only building his business but also preserving the heritage that means so much to him. Over the years, he’s made it his mission to pass down everything he knows—fishing techniques, trapping secrets, and time-honored skills—to his sons. As the Creole Patriarch, he stands as a guiding figure, shaping both his family legacy and the future of his trade. His dedication, knowledge, and leadership continue to inspire those around him, especially the next generation who look up to him as both a father and a mentor.
