From my website:
Fishing guide Todd Martinson is, in fact, a teacher. He teaches in a classroom near La Crosse, WI, during the school year and on the Wisconsin and Tomahawk Rivers during the summers. He grew up fishing during the summers on Lake Nokomis near Tomahawk, WI, at an early age and has not stopped fishing for almost forty straight years. In the beginning, it was panfish and trout using night crawlers. Soon he graduated to throwing expensive lures into trees trying to catch bass and northern. It was a rude awakening when he had to start purchasing his own lures at age ten. Funny how he suddenly became a more accurate caster!
From high school on whenever Todd had free time, he went fishing. After college Todd was introduced to fly fishing. What started out as a fun activity has grown into a passionate pursuit of fish all over the country. His travels took him out to Bend, Oregon, where he lived and guided for three years. Putting clients on Brook, Brown, Rainbow, and even Bull Trout on local lakes and rivers.
In recent years he is back in the Midwest teaching near La Crosse, WI, during the school year and guiding on the Wisconsin River system in the Spring, Summer, and Fall. Along with the many summers spent fishing the Wisconsin River and local area lakes he has spent the last three years learning the river system and no doubt has a pulse for where the fish may be and what they are eating. His preferred method of fishing the river is to use topwater presentations where clients get to see fish explode out of the water to devour their next meal. Todd truly enjoys sharing what he has learned throughout the years with others. Sometimes getting more excited than the clients when they catch fish! Being a teacher he is able to communicate and give guidance to clients in a friendly and understandable way which leads to a very enjoyable day on the water.
