Angler Q & A

Technique strength: Versatility, but I have to say I love shallow-water fishing

Technique weakness: Don’t like to throw a Carolina rig, like watching paint dry

Favorite lake or river: I have two: Falcon Lake and the Great Lakes. I love to fish for smallmouth

Least favorite lake or river: The Three Rivers in Pittsburgh

Favorite bait: A jig

Started bass fishing at the age of: High school

Year turned pro: In 1979, I left to fish B.A.S.S.

Your biggest bass fishing influence (person): Rick Clunn in the 70’s. The other is my wife, Jana, because when I was starting out as a pro angler she helped me learn to live below my means.

If you were not a professional bass angler, what would you be doing: I’m sure I would be in the fishing industry somehow.
