About Our Auction

Brady Winans is a long term Native Texan who has fished competitively for almost 35 years. Brady has fished trails such as Media Bass, Ignition Bass, Victory Bass, Texas Team Trail, Team Trail Outdoors and even larger trails such as the Bassmaster Opens and MLF Toyota Fishing Series.

On top of being an angler, Brady is an 18 year veteran of the fishing industry. He has worked for the Rep Agency, Sunbelt Sales, for his entire fishing industry career.

On December 12, 2021, Brady and one of his closest friends went fishing on Cedar Creek Reservoir in Texas. They started early and were traveling to where they wanted to start off their morning fishing, the Dam. As they took off and traveled to the dam, the lake was clear of any weather or fog. As they got within a few miles of the dam, they encountered a couple fog banks that had come over the top of the dam and drifted into the lake. Brady’s partner did as he should and reduced speed. As they approached the dam, the dam came upon them faster than anticipated and they struck the dam.

Upon impact, Brady was thrown forward into the trolling motor and graphs on the boat and then was thrust into the air until he landed on the top of the dam. Brady suffered a broken spine, a shattered
left ankle, a compound fracture of his right femur, a broken clavicle and two broken ribs. Upon arrival of emergency services, the decision was made to CareFlight Brady to UT Health Trauma in Tyler, Tx. Upon arrival at the hospital, he was sedated and within the next week, he had three surgeries to repair his injuries. Brady spent 3 months in the hosptial and in-patient rehab, and has now transitioned back home where he continues he recovery and out-patient rehab. He has several more surgeries ahead of him as well as a long rehab battle.

Brady is married and has two young boys. Ages 4 and 7. His world revolves around his family. They are his inspiration to making a full recovery and he is prepared to go the distance to make sure he returns home as complete as he can be, no matter how long it takes.

This auction is being put on by some of Brady's friends and thanks to the support of generous organizations and friends in the outdoor and fishing industry these items are being auctioned to support Brady and his family during this time and throughout his recovery.
