Fishing Since: 6 years old
Primary Species: Musky, Deer, Turkey
Primary Areas: Waters With Musky & Woods with Deer

Professional/Personal Highlights: Todd has been living the outdoor lifestyle since he was able to walk. His father took him to the woods at the age of 3 and he was casting a musky rod by the time he was 6. He caught his first musky by age 8 and has caught and released several hundred since then. He has captured three 50 pus inch fish on Keyes Outdoors with his personal best a 54.5 x 25 with Steve and the late Eric Genson on LOTW. It was in Steve Genson’s boat that Todd caught his biggest Wisconsin musky at a whoppin’ 52”x23”. Last year he was filming with Mike Keyes and Brad Hoppe (Musky Mayhem Tackle) when he stuck a 51x23 in Minnesota (airing spring of 07). Not only that, but he has also harvested a 28Lb Turkey while hunting on Keyes Outdoors with Steve Genson. When the camera is rolling he knows how to ‘Bring It’. Todd doesn’t just chase muskies, he’s a bow hunting fanatic! Todd spends his fall pursuing whitetails in his home state of Wisconsin. He has harvested over 60 deer with his bow and enjoys the challenge of hunting deer with pure man power and perseverance via his Mathews. He says “I’m blessed to have my awesome wife Amy and my two beautiful children Hailey (5), & Brayden (3)… that is what I’m most proud of.” He really enjoys taking others out fishing, bow hunting and chasing turkeys in the spring.
