Angling Stuff

Angling Hero	"There's several of them, but Rick Clunn and Gary Klein come to mind. They've simplified a lot of things, and they're still at the top of their game."

Least Favorite Lake	"Any lake in Florida."
Favorite Technique	Spinnerbaits, shallow or deep
Primary Fishing Strength	Jig
Secondary Fishing Strength	Spinnerbait
Biggest Weakness	Grass-fishing

Personal Stuff

Favorite Food	Grilled ribeye steak (medium)
Favorite Music	"I listen to a little bit of everything. I'm a big Van Halen fan."
Favorite Book/Movie	Lethal Weapon series (movie)
When Not Fishing	"I like to go duck-hunting. That's probably my second-favorite thing to do."
Why He Fishes	"I just love to figure out how to catch fish every day. And I love to look for and find fish. There's nothing better in the world than when you get it all put together."
