The photo's are of Searra, my middle daughter with her 1st fish at Otay (4 pounds) and the other is of me earlier that day with a tournament 5.05 big fish.  Write up on me?  Simple and quick.
Born 28 Aug 1970, raised on a dairy farm in Milltown, WI.  Joined the USMC in 1988.  A grunt for 12 years before pinning on my Warrant Officer bars and becoming a range officer.  Married for 12 years to Diane and blessed with 3 wonderful kids; Toni Danielle (11), Searra Dawn (10), & Taryn Ponyboy (9).  We currently reside aboard Camp Pendleton where I am stationed.  I didn't get infected with the "BASS" virus until 1997 when I went with a friend to Hodges.  Got hooked up with the old M.B.A.A. and the San Diego chapter were so friendly and helpful I just had to go back.  "Wild" Bill Hall, Mike Florendo, Joe Tolentino, Gary Bass, and Mark & Cameron Smith were, and still are, some of the greatest guys out on the water, a couple of them even can catch fish!  I owe them all a lot, a whole lot.  Thanks guys.  That's it, I am the product of those important to me and none more so than my soul mate, Diane.  Life's short, so enjoy it, smile and laugh, and most important share everything; your toys, your time, and your love.
 
Take care Mike
