If they are there, he will get them. Very nice fish, my friend, as always!

Joe is plain and simply the best in his area. No one works harder and has better consistent results as he does and a nicer guy you will not meet.

There's a good number of good fisherman out there. Like Paul said, Joe is above all a good guy and a pleasure to be around. I can't say the same for a number of other highliners out there... I'm glad he's having a good season.

Congrats Joe!
