I’ve been on the water since I was 2months old, and I have been fishing ever since I could hold a rod. I have been fishing competitively for bass for 6 years and for stripers for 12 years. I’m a 2005 graduate of Central Cambria High School, in Ebensburg PA. I am currently enrolled at Penn State University majoring in Fisheries Sciences. I am a member of the PSU Bass Fishing Team. I also fish the Fishers of Men, and the BFL. 2006 I qualified for the Fishers of Men Eastern Regional, by finishing 6th overall in the Maryland-West Division. I also fished the Northeast Division of the BFL in 2006.

In 2007, I will be fishing the Northeast Division of the BFL and possibly a new division of the Fishers of Men. I will also compete for the PSU bass fishing team in tournaments around the country. I will also be competing in many local tournaments.

I also help out getting youth involved in the sport of Bass Fishing. I am the youth advisor for the Johnstown Christian Junior Bass Anglers. I got my start in a youth fishing club and I hope that I can help kids have a passion for the fishing and the outdoors like I do. The JCJBA swept the PA State Jr. Classic and will be sending a kid in each age bracket (Andrew Shaulis 15-18, and Keith Grasser, 11- 14) to represent PA in the JR BASSMASTER CLASSIC in Alabama in February 2007. They are both from my club the JCJBA.

I wouldn’t be able to pursue my dreams if it wasn’t for my biggest sponsors and supporters… My Mom and Dad.
