Goals & Objectives: I want to accomplish many things but to start out I want to WIN as many Jr. World Championships as possible.  I would also like to go onto a few nationally viewed fishing shows to get my name out there to people that haven’t heard of me yet. I want to be the best fisherman there ever was. I want to be better than the world’s greats.  I want to be A LEGEND.

Fishing Tournaments:  I currently fish in the Northeastern Jr. Bassmasters tournament trail and compete in TBF FLW State Tournament.

Memberships: I’m a member of the TFF, Boy Scouts, Northeastern Jr. Bassmasters, Texas TBF, Immaculate Conception Catholic Church, SMS Fellowship Of Christian Athletes, and the SMS National Junior Honor Society.

Current Sponsors:  I’m currently sponsored by Hags Tornado. It’s been over a year since I joined their prostaff. I've recently joined the prostaff for Youth In the Wild.  I'm also on the field staffs for Strike Works Tackle and El Grande Lures.

Interests: I have many interests, one of which is starting my own custom lure company to build a career for myself when I get older.  And because I love fishing I want to make a career out of it and be a pro angler.

Strengths: I can power fish and finesse fish, but still have a lot to learn on some techniques.  I am always reading up on the latest techniques and studying what the pros are doing.

My fishing autobiography

I have been fishing since I was 5 when I lived in Colorado. When I moved to Nebraska in 2002 I started to bass fish more, but didn’t do it often. While I lived in Nebraska I caught a master angler fish weighing in at 5lb. When I was 9, I competed in the first ever Nebraska TBF FLW State Championship fishing tournament. I was too young to go to nationals but competed in the 10 and under tournament. Later that year I fished many club tournaments before moving to Texas. My first year in Texas I competed in the Texas TBF FLW State Championship, they didn’t have a 10 and under championship so I was pretty much fun fishing. I didn’t fish in any club tournaments, I did do a lot of fun fishing in 2008. Next year I finished 2 in the Texas TBF FLW State Championship, and won one club tourney and got second in another which qualified me for the 2010 Texas B.a.s.s Jr. Basmaster Top Six State Championship. In 2010, I won one club tourney and second in another which has qualified me for the 2011 State Championship.Accomplishments
