Hobbies & Interests

Fishing in his local lakes is another of Spencer’s hobbies – he travels extensively, which allows for the opportunity to try the sport in other countries around the globe. Agua Boa, which is part of Brazil’s Amazon River, is widely regarded as one of the best angling destinations in the world. Well-known for its stocks of beautiful giant peacock bass, the location offers an unparalleled fishing experience.
