When John Ryan Heatly of Newport Beach founded Hannibal Offshore, he wanted to raise the bar in offshore fishing apparel. "The goal was to take what fisherman use and need to the next level," says John. "To expand our line of products and services, to be a one-stop shop." Combining style, experience and a love of the sport, Hannibal Offshore quickly developed into a multi-faceted company offering a boatload of merchandise and services.

"For us, it's more than just catching fish, it's sharing that passion, that vibe that makes sport fishing such a joy." A passion keenly observed by fisherman Chuck Clark who noted, "Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn." Sincerely, John Heatly, President
