Meet Dan

I was introduced to hunting and fishing at the age of 4. Hunting and fishing have always been a part of my life and family. My dad introduced me to all things outdoors from the moment I could walk, and I plan to do the same with my kids. Hunting took the forefront after high school, when I was hired as a full-time elk hunting guide in southwest Colorado. I spent the next 10 years guiding many incredible people on the hunt of their lives. The passion I have for hunting has made its way back to the water, in the shape of hunting for fish. A specific type of fish that is unlike any other – the muskie. Just like chasing big white-tail deer and bull elk, muskie fishing is a challenging pursuit that tests you physically, mentally, and emotionally. The pursuit is what draws me into this passion. When it all comes together, in that perfect moment, there is nothing like it.

I desire to share these gifts and experiences with others who would enjoy it. No prior experience is required to fish with me. I enjoy teaching and helping others learn a new skill; and if you are experienced, I have all of the latest and greatest gear to utilize and get after it! Join me in the pursuit of the fish of a lifetime.
