Pete M. Anderson

After almost 25 years of local, state and regional bass tournament competition, from New Hampshire’s Lake Winnisquam to the Georgia side of Clarks Hill Reservoir, Pete changed his fishing direction. While bass remain his focus, he also spends time chasing muskies, walleye and trout. A lifelong angler, he has spent the past 30 years writing and editing for print publications in New York, Pennsylvania and North Carolina, along with various online outlets. He lives with his wife, Angela, in Webster, New York, only a stone’s throw from Lake Ontario.
