Maxime knew very early on that his passion in life was going to be fishing, and he knew it at the age of 3, when he caught his first fish on the banks of the Picanoc River. By the age of 10, he was already dreaming of buying a bass boat and along the way, he became an avid fisherman, especially at bass tournaments.
He started his professional life at the age of 17, advising customers at his father's fishing store, who were happy to have such a passionate young man to deal with! He then honed his skills serving customers at a Subaru dealership before being offered what he considers his dream job and the one that brings him back to his passion: Sales at the largest marine dealership in the area. It's proof that childhood dreams can come true if you really believe in them!
