William is blessed to have grown up in California's Mother Lode area. By the age of eight, fishing was one of his favorite things to do. He had two ponds within hiking distance from his house, giving him thrills catching bluegill, bass, and crappie.
William's mother was a real help back then, as she realized his passion for fishing. When he would ask her to drive him to a lake, river, or stream for some trout fishing, she was happy to take him.
Today, fifty years has gone by since those days, and he still lives and fishes close to where he grew up.
Old School Basic Fishing was his first book on the fishing basics. Solid gold Fishing in The Mother Lode, his second book, is more advanced: naming locations; seasons; products that work; techniques; and a bunch of good additional material!
Since William's first book came out, to present time, he has done fishing seminars, fishing shows, scouting, reporting, local TV and radio, and became a part-time columnist. Naturally, his knowledge of fishing continued to grow doing all those fishing interviews and reports!
Fishing is still his favorite sport, and, believe me, he has learned to catch fish quickly. William admits, it took a lifetime of 'trial and error learning' what you need to do, otherwise, he wasted time, and, time is important.
William really enjoys fishing with friends. Getting a half-day of great entertainment, fun, and a few fish dinners, too... he laughs, what a sport huh? It does not get any better than fishing, if you ask William. He likes to read about fishing, watches it on television, and talks about fishing with people he meets.
