Stan Vanderburg sits among the elite in Southern California's professional bass fishing community. Stan's years of professional tournament fishing has earned him a well-deserved reputation. Just the word "bass" causes a tingle up the spine of any fresh water angler. Say it in Stan's company and you're in for a long conversation. "The Tingle... Yeah, I get it, then it goes to my arm, as I think of the shiver of a rod when a big one's shaking it's head that really gets me going. I love catching Bass."

Large Mouth Bass are Stan's passion and specialty. Stan's insight and knowledge have been built over 23 years of professional tournament fishing and as a consultant to many companies who specialize in freshwater bass angling. The list of Stan's sponsors and professional & civic associations is impressive and supports his well-deserved reputation as a top-class freshwater bass angler. Stan is a resident of Southern California, where the man-made reservoirs and lakes hold wonderful populations of healthy large mouth bass. Today, Stan fishes selected local and regional tournaments, but most enjoys the work he does with various tackle companies, helping to develop better ways for every angler to be more successful, and especially the work he does on Rod and Reel radio, sharing his knowledge with the recreational fisherman, and of course, spending his time on the water, with his friends.

You'll hear Stan and his partner, Bill Ghiselin, every Sunday night from 8-10PM, on Rod and Reel Radio, sharing his knowledge with other recreational fisherman.
