    i

 I am 25 years old and currently reside in THERESA NY.  Bass fishing is my passion and I spend every free moment on the water. I've always fished but I became avid about bass fishing when I was very young. Honesty, respect, and the sportsman’s code of conduct are at the top of my priorities. As a child I was always involved in fishing I would fish every opportunity I could. I would wait till my father would get home from work, waiting in the driveway with the boat hooked up and the plug in, just ready to go fishing. From the day I picked up a fishing pole I had an inclination that I had a natural talent when it came to bass fishing. Whether it was picking what lure and color to use or being able to locate structure, flats and other areas that would hold bass. That continued for many years and I became better and better at fishing and everything that had to go along with the sport .When I was 13, I got my first boat it was a 14 foot aluminum with a 7.5 hp Mercury outboard on the back.  I built a casting deck on the front and making a trolling motor mount for the front just doing everything I could do, to fish like the pros .The area I grew up in had many different lakes around when I couldn’t get a ride to the lake I would hook my boat to the back of my four wheeler and I would take seasonal access roads just so I could fish .I did this almost nightly till I was 18 years old.  I joined the military and after four years of service I spent 2 years on Toledo Bend Lake in Newton Texas.  It was there I bought my first bass boat.  I would fish day and night for 2 years entering many tournaments throughout Texas and parts of Louisiana winning and placing very well in all that I entered. I have since moved back to New York and am now fishing in tournaments with the American Bass Anglers Association, with plans to fish F.L.W outdoors events and also B.A.S.S events throughout the Tri-State area in 2010.
