Best Fishing Story: I have one that comes to mind. It was a number of years ago, before my wife and I had kids. I asked her to go pre fishing with me for an upcoming tournament on Great Moose Pond. We had gotten a late start so our fishing ran into the evening. We had caught a number of fish in various spots, but nothing great. Just as the sun started to set, we found a "honey hole". We caught fish after fish ranging from 3 to 5 pounds. I've never seen my wife so excited. It was great seeing her have so much fun. I think at that point she finally understood why I love to fish.
They aren't all good fishing days, but any day on the water is a good day. We haven't fished together much since we've had children, but I want her to know I've never forgotten that day together.
I also would like to thank my fishing partner, Chad Smith, for sticking with me. We have become good friends along the way. I couldn't ask for a better partner, as he is a great fisherman and we have fun on the water. I truly feel I've become a better fisherman because of him. Thanks Chad
