Personal Stuff

Favorite Food Boiled lobster
Favorite Music "I don't really have a favorite, but if I had to pick it would probably be alternative."
Favorite Book/Movie "I don't have any."
Non-Angling Hero Father - "He's always supported me, and has always been there for me."
When Not Fishing "I like to hunt a little, be on the lake water-skiing and do a little 4-wheeling in ATVs."
Why He Fishes "I just love it. I've always loved it ever since I was a young boy. Even if I'm not fishing, I love being on the lake. And you never actually know what's on the line when you get bit, and that intrigues me."
