Corey has been fishing for bass since he was 2 years old, starting on small ponds in New Hampshire and carrying that passion all the way into tournament fishing and guiding. Over the years, he’s developed a strong understanding of both modern bass techniques and the technology used to find fish, and he brings that knowledge into every trip.

He’s known for being a hands-on teacher, breaking things down in a way that makes sense whether you’re just starting out or looking to refine your approach. His focus is on helping you not just catch fish, but understand why you’re catching them and how to repeat it.

Fishing is something he lives and breathes, and his goal is simple—give you the most memorable and productive day on the water possible while helping you become a better angler.
