Military Branch: US Army

Event Name: Eagle River Muskie Chal-Lunge

What can I say? Two years in a row fishing Muskies with some of the best Muskie guides in the world- and even better yet, with wounded Heroes from Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq! Life doesn’t get better than that. The volunteers and sponsors were second to none and our host Scott was spectacular- a selfless and dedicated American- I call him my Hero. It is men and woman like Scott, his guides and his volunteers who truly fill my heart with pride- I am proud to call them all friends. Fishing Muskies two years in a row has been amazing but making new friends in the Wisconsin Northwoods- well that’s something I’ll remember for a lifetime.
