Once late Fall comes around, I enjoy spending a little time in my treestand! I also enjoy morning pheasant hunts with my 9 year old Brittany Spaniel, Chase. I do not offer guided hunts but I do offer fishing trips year round!
Another passion of mine is the game of soccer. I am the Head Varsity Coach of the Portage-
Poynette United Soccer Team. I also coach my son's traveling U13 team, Portage Heat.
Growing up near Wisconsin Rapids, I was fortunate to be surrounded by great places to fish. A quarter mile long trail through the woods was all that separated my Parent's house from the shores of Nepco Lake, where Bass and Northern Pike would provide a Summer's worth of topwater thrills! I can't tell you how much I used to look forward to weekend trips with my father, fishing the Nekoosa and Port Edwards sections of the Wisconsin River for Walleye! I was a rare kid, who could fish all day long and never wish to be doing anything else.
The picture to the left, taken over 30 years ago, shows me with a beautiful stringer of Walleyes caught above Lake Petenwell while fishing with my father.
Since then, I have evolved as both a fisherman and conservationist. I've spent countless hours learning what it takes to bridge the gap between failure and success on the water, and I am blessed to be able to teach something that I enjoy so much!
Most of all, I enjoy spending time with my wife and son. We love to go sandbar-hopping on the Wisconsin River, where we'll fish, swim, grill out, play some disc golf, and kick a soccer ball. It doesn't get any better than that!
