About me:  I grew up on the northwest side of Chicago, but spend much of my youth at my grandfather’s cottage by Lake Como in Southern Wisconsin.  That time period would be my introduction to fishing and the introduction of what would become one of my favorite bodies of water, Lake Geneva.  As an Engineer by trade today, my approach to fishing is more technical than most, with the primary focus being on the structure of the lake and not the shore line.  I am aided greatly by the maps I create and use my electronics to get a much better understanding of what lies below the surface.  I share my experiences and educate fellow anglers at seminars I do and want to always continue to learn and teach others to become better anglers.
