Cory Dreyer
Cory Dreyer calls Randleman, North Carolina home, but he was born and raised in Safety Harbor, Florida. He grew up fishing with his father and brother all over the state and frequented the awesome fishery of the Tampa Bay area. Saltwater fishing became his passion at a young age.
Cory left the the state of Florida to serve our country in the U.S. Marine Corps in 2000 and returned in 2006. This is when his passion for kayak fishing began. He began his kayak fishing obsession on the backcountry waters of Tampa Bay and in coastal waterways around Florida. Cory moved to North Carolina in 2009 to lay new roots with his wife, Sabrina, and now chases largemouth bass all over the state in his kayak!
Cory began fishing kayak tournaments in 2012 and decided in 2013 it was time to start a tournament series of his own to grow the sport of kayak fishing. He started Carolina Kayak Anglers, which benefits Heroes on the Water and has had a huge success in getting people interested in the sport and competitive side of kayak bass fishing. Cory also began fishing tournaments from his bass boat in 2018 and is now fishing the pro side of the Major League Fishing Toyota Series Central Division.
