Member since April 2019 Conneaut, United States
Background
I've always enjoyed fishing, ever since I was young. I've spent my summers growing up on Lake Erie, and I was on the water whenever I had the chance. Over the years, I've perfected my angling skills and techniques and decided to turn my passion into a full-time job, which is how Crooked Creek Charters came to be. I love spending time outdoors, and teaching people how to fish. I take very good care of my boat and all the fishing equipment so that I can provide my anglers with the best fishing experience.
Techniques
Summer walleye trips consist of trolling a combination of planer boards. Dypsey diver, Trutrips, or downriggers. Spring drift fishing is also available.
