Professional/Personal Highlights: Joe fishes the pro musky and professional walleye tours in addition to guiding in Wisconsin's famous Vilas County and owning Cave Run Lodging in Morehead, Kentucky. He took 6th place in the 2005 FLW Professional Walleye Tour-Devils Lake. But does Joe know musky fishing? He is a seven-time Pro Musky Tournament Trail qualifier and the only six-time champion. Another "only" is that Joe is the only individual who has qualified for every PMTT Musky Championship Tournament. Whether Joe knows musky fishing seems like a silly question in retrospect, now doesn't it?
