I used to fish commercially in Alaska, and have been on every type of boat from 28 foot drift-netters in Bristol Bay to 250 foot factory trawlers in the Gulf of Alaska.

Now I live in the lower 48, but have always stayed close to fishing. It's a passion. I can drive an hour for Snake River sturgeon, 20 minutes to the Columbia River for sockeye and king salmon, 15 minutes to many of the finger lakes around for big mouth bass, or 5 minutes to the Yakima River for rainbows and dollies. A fisherman's paradise here in central Washington.
