I love the outdoors and have spent much time hunting, skiing and just walking in the woods. Most family vacations were skiing or scuba diving. My love of fish came from scuba diving and keeping aquariums of both fresh and saltwater fish. I live near several lakes in the northwestern part of Wisconsin and I hardly ever fish. I make them in my shop. I find great satisfaction when someone chooses to take the things I have made into their home. My son Jeff is an artist and encouraged me to try my hand at creating something of value.
