I am a fourth generation guide on Reelfoot Lake. My ancestors made a living as guides and commercial fishermen on Reelfoot Lake for as far back as I have been able to research. Guiding and hunting and fishing are not my hobbies, they are my life. I, personally, have been guiding on Reelfoot Lake for over 30 years. I am also a professional crappie fisherman with sponsors including B'n'M Poles, Power Poles, Millennium Seats and Blue Bank Resort. My fishing partner and I recently were blessed to win the 2018 American Crappie Trail National Champions.
