How did you start in your sport? (What’s your origin story?)

I have been involved in the outdoors as long as I can remember, my earliest memories are with me and my father fishing in a small farm ponds nearly 30 years ago. Fishing and the outdoors have always felt like home for me, as time continued on I have become more involved every year, and continue to focus on creating those memories with my boys.

What is your favorite Dakota Lithium Product & WHY?

Powerbox 10. The Power Box has now become something I will never leave home without. I use it every time I setup in the morning to fish, prep for a tournament, or when I’m on the water to power all of my electronics. The best part is it doesn’t end there, it now travels with me every time I head to the duck blind to power everything there, it’s compactness and versatility make it a tool I now cannot live with out.
