The People Who Inspire our Adventures
Through fishing we have met some unforgettable characters, and we want you to know them, too.
A 20 Year Wait to Fish With Dennis Tietje at Grosse Savanne
I met Dennis Tietje at his camp on Toledo Bend in either 2001 or 2003, when he hosted a crawfish boil. I was one of the few interlopers there amongst the Hall of Famers. Until a recent trip to Grosse Savanne we’d never fished together. It turned out to be just about a perfect outing.
Talking Spinnerbaits, Livewell Design and Crawfish with Oklahoma Legend OT Fears
OT Fears and I have fished together in the four corners of the United States – from the Potomac River to Mille Lacs to Rayburn to the California Delta. Hanna and I were thrilled to run into OT and his high-school-sweetheart-turned-bride Maryline Marie at the Bassmaster Classic in Tulsa.
