Colin is a member of the New Wave Fishing Academy content creation team. Growing up in the Parry Sound area he always looked forward to weekend fishing trips with his dad on Georgian Bay chasing smallmouth bass. Now he has a passion for chasing the biggest and baddest fish around and is willing to grind 10, 12, and even 14 hours a day for that one bite that you'll never forget. His personal best muskie at 51" came 12 hours in to a 14 hour fishing day.
