Greg Stene - St. Paul, Minnesota
"I have fished with John since 2000 and have never caught as many fish as I have with this guy. He really understands the nature of any fish he goes after."
Greg Schneider - St. Paul, Minnesota

Pat Schneider - St. Paul, Minnesota

Mark Peters - Blaine, Minnesota
"I have known John all of his life and have fished with him since we were old enough to fish. I have never met someone so obsessed with fish and fishing. I don't even go fishing unless it's with him. I think he's part fish!!!"
Mike Peters - North Branch, Minnesota
"I have known John all of his life but only started fishing with him about 5 years ago. We invited him to bring his boat down to Arkansas and act as our family guide on a large lake that he had never fished before. John caught us several hybrid striped Bass from 5-8 pounds and made sure everyone caught fish and had a great time. Then my brother Mark and I fished with John on Lake Oahe for Walleyes and I have never seen fishing that good and I have fished for them in Canada, also. He knows all the secrets for catching fish."
Lee Jager - Alexandria, South Dakota
"I used to work with John and have fished with him several times in the past 6 years. We also catch loads of fish and have a great time."
Chuck Mason - Delaware
"I used to work with John and got the chance to fish with him once in Mitchell, South Dakota and we caught more and bigger Bluegills than I have ever seen in my life. I didn't even know these fish grew that big."
Randy and Daniel Baker - Stratford, Iowa
"We are a father and son team that work in the telephone industry and are one of John's customers. He offered to take us fishing last summer and we had a fabulous time. The temperatures were between 113F and 115F all weekend but we still caught the biggest Walleyes we have ever caught."
Dave Nelson - Rogers, Minnesota
"I have known John since middle school and we have fished together for over 20 years. I have never met someone who knows so much about so many species of fish. We always catch plenty of fish together."
Darin Mindrup - Harris, Minnesota
"I have known John for 16 years and have fished with him for that many. He was pretty much my fishing mentor and taught me how to catch just about everything. He really knows what he's doing."
Jeff Schumacher - Mitchell, South Dakota
"I work with John in the telecom industry and have known him for over 5 years. I am not much of a fisherman myself but on the few occasions when John has talked me into fishing with him I have had a great time and we have always caught plenty of fish. He really goes the extra mile to make sure that even a beginner can catch lots of fish."
Brian Peters - North Branch, Minnesota
"I have been fishing with John for the past 5 years or so with my father Mike and my uncle Mark and I have never met someone who knows as much about fishing as John does. Last summer while everyone else was too scared to go out on the lake because of the waves, John took myself and my friend Tony out in his boat and showed us how to catch fish under the most severe conditions. He is a fearless yet safe boater and excellent guide, as we caught a boatload of fish while everyone else sat in their cabins."
Tony Beaver - North Branch, Minnesota
"I first met John with the Peters clan on our trip to Arkansas. He put us on large schools of hard-fighting hybrid stripers. He also showed us how to tie proper knots and which lures to use. Brian Peters and I have sure learned a great deal about fishing from him."
Gareth Davies - Brookings, South Dakota
"I am originally from Wales and am a former professional rugby player who is now an immunologist at SDSU. I met John this summer and we fished for carp together twice at Lake Herman and did surprisingly well. I caught the biggest carp of my life on both occasions and we caught tons of fish in just a few hours of fishing each session. He really seems to understand these American carp. I hope to continue fishing with him as much as possible in the future."
