Joe Albanese
Joe has been fishing for longer than he can remember, cutting his teeth on striped bass, weakfish, summer flounder and other inshore favorites. He later took to freshwater fishing with smallmouth bass becoming a favorite, though he enjoys pursuing panfish, trout, and just about everything that swims. After receiving a degree in Wildlife Management from the State University of New York, he spent about a decade working in natural resource management for state and federal agencies including the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, NYS Department of Environmental Conservation and the U.S. Department of Agriculture. He then began a career in written communications, writing for some 35 publications and serving as executive editor for Field & Stream and Salt Water Sportsman before joining the Wired2fish team.
