My Grandfather introduced me to fishing when I was 4 or 5, we mostly surf fished on Masonboro Island and fished a little in the sound behind the island. I quit fishing around the time I was 15 or 16 and got back into fishing around my mid 20's mainly King Mackeral and offshore. I got burnt out on the saltwater scene and have been freshwater fishing the last 2 summers. I have learned most of what I know from trial and error and from Bass Resource.com. My goal for next year is become a better angler period, in both the fresh and saltwater, however I will focus more time  on Bass fishing, than saltwater

Well, my dad brought me for the first time but I learned to fish in saltwater for the most part.  I had a few people showing me the ropes. Capt. Kevin Dailey, Capt. Bill Mancini, Bob Mancini, the Dolph brothers and a few others.

Much of it transfers but freshwater has been a self learning thing.  Dirk was always ahead of me (knowledge wise) so I'm sure I picked up quite a bit from him too.  Fly fishing, I was taught exclusively by Bob and Bill Mancini.

I thank my grandpa for taking me out fishing early in my life and introducing me to such a great sport.  He was the one who gave me the bug and taught me the basics of fishing.  I have also learned alot from watching Bill Dance and I try to learn something from every person I go fishing with.

Papa (my grandfather)

Taught me how to fish when I was just a toddler. On the banks of the Cattaraugus Creek in Versailles.

Grew up there in the summers at my Grandfathers house which is on the banks. Parents worked weekdays and I spent all day with him and my grandma. Never forget my grandma hooking into a nice steelhead. She got it within a foot from shore and it came off......my grandma actually bellyflopped into the water from shore to try and jump on it. She missed.  ;D  Best fishing memory ever as a child.

my dad and my grandpa. I'm lucky in that my grandpa was the late and great comby of comby rod and reel repair. He could do anything, he tied his own jigs and spinners to even working with Bass Pro Shop when they were still a small company. ;D
