I grew up fishing in East Tennessee and South Florida. As a teen I was able to discover the world of competitive bass fishing via Sonny McFarland a well known homemade crankbait builder in East Tennessee ( Flatshad Baits). I spent most of my time as a teen either fishing or building baits with Sonny. I have been a police officer for the past 23 years and have continued to fish on local tournament trails and have stayed involved with building homemade crankbaits now with Rob Cochran at JawJacker Baits. I have a great UNDERSTANDING wife who handles the stress of being a police officers wife and my passion for fishing like a champ! We have a wide open 6 year old son who already has a fishing addiction. My goal is to represent the Bass Fishing community with pride, respect, and integrity so to inspire our upcoming young fisherman to do the same. Billy Hall
