Q: TYPE OF FISHING THAT YOU DO AND SPECIES YOU TARGET MOST
If it swims in New England I fish for it and write about it!
Q: FAVORITE STORMR PRODUCT
I have the Typhoon and love it
Q: FAVORITE FISHING SPOT
For me this is the ultimate open-ended-question! I am equally at home trolling for landlocked salmon in Quabbin Reservoir as I am drilling holes in the Sudbury River for pike. In the salt, I salivate for stripers in the surf of North Shore Beaches as I do for jigging cod from Jeffrey’s Ledge.
Q: FAVORITE STORMR DEALER
Monahan Marine.
Q: FISHING ACHIEVEMENTS
I have caught a dizzying variety of species (plenty big)in a myriad of different ways. I prefer capturing the fishing experience and the catch with my camera and my keyboard!
I am as pleased plucking smelt as I am duking it out with 200-pound tuna – all of which I’ve written stories about. I see my role as an outdoor communicator and an enabler to help others catch more and bigger fish!
