Ray Jahn

General Manager

As our sales & general manager, Ray Jahn is here to help you every step of the way when purchasing a boat from Fish Tale. He grew up in Minnesota near the Great Northern 10,000 lakes. Spending weekends on the lake as a child developed his passion for the water and boating.

Growing up in the business world around his parents, he learned great skills & values from a young age – like if you treat others the way you want to be treated and start the day with a great attitude, you will be successful in whatever you set out to accomplish. After serving 3 years in the Navy, he moved to Southwest Florida shortly after visiting his parents who had relocated to Naples. That’s when he joined the Fish Tale team about 15 years ago and has been an integral part ever since.
