Why Do I Fish: I enjoy fishing tournaments because of the competition of not only beating the other anglers, but also overcoming all of the constantly changing variables to figure out how to catch fish and win on any given day.

CAREER HIGHLIGHTS
Winning the ABA National Championship & Angler of the Year - 2002
This was the financial and prestigious launching point of my professional angling career.

Placed in the money in over 60% of BASS and FLW pro level tournaments
