Tournament Bass Angler | Writer
I began fishing at the age of two at our family cabin in Prairie Du Chien, WI, located on the mighty Mississippi River. In 2001, I fished my first bass tournament and took first place, from this point on I have been hooked on fishing bass tournaments. I continue to fish tournaments on the Mississippi River, but now also fish tournaments in Minnesota, as well as regional events in KY, TN, and OK. Besides fishing, I take pride in passing on my fishing knowledge on to others through articles, videos, and seminars.
