Having grown up in Northwest Arkansas with my uncle and him teaching me the love of the great outdoors has taught me many values in life. I started tournament fishing in 1989 and followed the following trails; BFL, Pro-AM, Anglers Choice, Champion Team Trail and numerous jackpot tournaments.

Wanting to teach others the values of support fishing, I started a Guide service and was very successful for several years. I then began traveling across the U.S with a mobile aquarium, teaching others fishing techniques and promoting products.

I started my own company in 2001 (Fetch-N-Fish Promotions). I began with the fishing tub and then added the dog show. I own and train six Labrador Retrievers that come from a very high pedigree background. In the Spring of 2007, I wanted to give more to the show promoters so I have added the Okie Noddling with giant catfish. This has become a big hit.. This is will offer a bigger variety for the promoters and consumers

Fishing always has been one of my biggest priorities, fishing the B.A.S.S. Central Division since 1995. And catching Big Bass in the B.A.S.S. tournament at Sam Rayburn, Texas; was such a rewarding experience. In 2002 Triton Team Trail began their 1st fishing circuit, their format was great and I was excited to fish this trail. Placing in the Top 5 overall in 2002 and 2003.

Promoting and Public speaking has been a very important role in my life and I enjoy teaching others to respect and love the great outdoors.

When not fishing from the tub or a tournament, I have a great passion for Archery Hunting. I drew out for hunting the great State of Illinois in the fall of 2006 and killed a monster buck.. I live on Lake Eufaula with my wife and two children, Jasper and Jordan.
