General Info

Interests
Fishing and hunting with my kids. Cold bud light. Camping. Spending time with my beautiful wife, while fishing, lol.
Favorite Fish to Catch
Crappie.
Favorite Type of Fishing
10ft ultralight spinrod
Water Type
Freshwater
Favorite Lures
1/8 oz. jighead with black orange chartreuse tube skirt
Fishing Rods
5 ft and 10 ft ultralight. Nothing expensive, so when I break one I just go get another and still have money for gas in the boat.
Fishing Reels
I really like the Pflueger line of reels with 4 lb test. Spooled with Fireline.
Fishing Techniques
Love vertical jigging the trees and stumps for crappie. A buddy of mine has invented his own bobbers that are extremely sensitive to the crappie peck. We call it the Donco Bobber. Its taken my fishing to a whole other level.
Favorite Fishing Spot
above truman dam or anywhere on the lake of the ozarks

Fishing the stumps in a cove on the Tebo Arm of Truman Lake. 3 of us had our limits in less than 2hrs. Freezing cold, aroun d 15 degrees. But the fish were biting good. White and char skirts were the best. Fish were biting the jigs on the fall about 10 to 12' deep.

Got the boat out pretty much to see how our new dog is going to react to fishing and the boat.

Pretty cold morning of the 7th of Jan. Me and two buddies couldn't resist being on the water. Our wifes say that we have lost our minds. We did have to break about a half in. of ice to launch my boat, but we made it to our spot and what a day in turned out to be. We were back home by 11am.
