I own and operate Windy Fishing Guide Service. I offer guided fishing trips targeting smallmouth, musky, and walleye. I spend the majority of my time on Mille Lacs Lake, but I will venture to other water bodies as needed.

I have devoted a significant amount of my focus to fishing for as long as I can remember. I started guiding after high school as an avenue to share my passion with others, and I have been fortunate to share knowledge and create memories with many people while chasing trophy fish over the last 6 years. I am now expanding to offer guided trips on Minnesota Rivers. I am currently awaiting approval for my OUPV 6-Pack captains license, which will allow me to explore Minnesota Rivers with my clients, utilizing a jon boat powered with an outboard jet. Minnesota Rivers offer phenomenal fishing opportunities, with great populations, as well as trophy opportunities!

Outside of guiding, I spend the majority of my time fishing, thinking about fishing, or in preparation for fishing! Outside of fishing, I currently attend the University of Minnesota School of Public Health, in pursuit of a Master’s in Public Health. I studied biology at the University of Minnesota Morris, providing me a background of understanding for fisheries and freshwater ecology.

Whether you are a novice looking to learn the basics, or an experienced angler hoping to gain knowledge about freshwater ecology, I can accommodate your needs!
