Fishing is where he and his family found time to be together. In 1995 Chris followed in his father’s "footsteps" and began work with the Birmingham Police Department. Chris moved up through the ranks and was a Detective in the Narcotics Division when he moved to follow his dreams of professional bass fishing. He then moved to Guntersville, Alabama in 2003 to follow his dreams as a professional angler. Chris is now the owner/guide for Fins-N-Grins Freshwater Adventures and fishes on several national tournament trails.
