If you could only fish with one lure what would it be: 3/8oz flippin jig
Favorite band: Berkley
Boat/Motor: Ranger/ Evinrude
Tow Vehicle: Chevy Silverado
If you were not fishing what would you be doing: I would continue my education and courier as an Enviromental Geologist.
Hero (explain): I would have to say Jimmy Valvano. I remember watching the 1993 ESPY awards when he gave his life moving speech. His inspiring words to “Don’t give up, Don’t ever give up”, have brought me up in tough times. Whether dealing with life or trying to get my fifth fish for a limit, his words make me get the job done.
(Fishing hero) would have to be Denny Brauer. Not only can he work wonders with a Flippin’ stick, but he is a very nice individual.
