I started fishing when a friend asked me to go with him in the summer of 2021, and since then, I’ve been hooked. In 8th grade, I started to fish competitively and had a successful year of fishing in the junior series. My Freshman year of fishing had some ups and downs, but it was a great experience overall with several wins, a trip to Nationals in Tennessee, and an invitation to join the inaugural USAngling Youth Bass Fishing team for the Tri Nations Tournament in Zimbabwe. I am exited for future opportunities in fishing as a result of being part of the USAngling Youth Bass Fishing Team.
