Peter Koenig

Member since December 2022 Nokomis, United States
Background
I have always had a love for fishing. I enjoy sharing my passion with others. Teaching people how to fish and watching the joy it brings makes my day. I've been fishing these waters for over 25 years. My best fishing buddies are my wife and kids.
Techniques
I love all forms of fishing. I use light tackle rods and reels combined with artificial and live baits to adjust to the fishing conditions for maximum results.
