Hometown: McHenry, IL

Age: 38

Fishing History: I have had a fishing rod in my hands since the age of 3 and my passion for the sport has not faded. Now, I have also taken my love of the sport to another level and guide locally on Lake Michigan, the rivers, and soon some local southern Wisconsin lakes.

Favorite Techniques: Slow fishing plastics in and around cover. Weedline fishing with spinnerbaits.

Favorite Fishing Destination: The upper portion of the Kenai River in Alaska.

Watercraft: Sylvan Eliminator 1800.

Tournaments: ABA

Why associate with StankX Bait Co.: When I find a bait that works, it's hard to switch to something else. With Stankx there is no reason to switch to others because they have the baits that work and the people to back them up. If you need a special color they can do that. They are about the fisherman and his/her needs.
