Luke Ovgard grew up fishing around Klamath Lake, but his fishing interests quickly outgrew even the legendary Klamath Lake redband trout that prowl the region. Luke's passion for fishing didn't necessarily mean catching bigger and bigger fish, in fact, it meant catching all kinds of fish, preferably anything that swims. Using techniques like micro fishing, Ovgard's passion for catching as many species as he can has taken him on road trips across America and now to places like the Canary Islands and Monaco. An author, a high-school teacher and now full-time, active-duty U.S. Military in Europe, Ovgard tells us about how he transformed fishing from a hobby to a lifestyle.
