About Me

I started fishing as a kid in our back yard, also going to the edge of town and fishing the local dam. As I got older, kids that were older than me took me out to Lake Tschida, south of Hebron. I moved to Bowman, ND and started to fish Bowman Haley Dam where everybody said the lake was dead. Boy, did I prove them wrong! Figured the lake out, caught the heck out of walleyes and taught the locals all of my tricks. I got the local police department to help me start a kids fishing derby, which was a huge success. I then moved to Mobridge, SD fishing local tournaments and starting a guide service. Guided for about 12 years and fished local tournaments for about 12 years. Fished pro tournaments also. Moved to Mobile, AL, started to fish the local river and Big Creek Lake, but had to learn to bass fish, which is a big difference from walleye fishing. With hard work and determination, I think I’m getting it down!

Goals

To get back into guiding for crappie, walleye and maybe bass and to start fishing tournaments again. Plus do everything I can to spread the word about breast cancer awareness!

STATEMENT

I want to be involved in Pink Fishing because my wife is a breast cancer SURVIVOR. It was a real challenge for my wife and I, our kids to go through, so, if I can help someone catch it early and prevent them from going through chemo and radiation treatments, that would be a major accomplishment!
