My name is Andrew Magee. I live in Greer, South Carolina where I was born and have been raised my whole life. I started fishing with dad out of his small bass boat when I was just old enough to pick up a rod. I caught a six pound bass on one of the very first fishing trips that I can actually remember. Needless to say I was "hooked" after that. I began fishing Junior Bassmaster tournaments when was around 10 years old and once I was 15 the club members started letting me fish with the guys. I fished out of the back of other peoples boats for the next few years and was able to compete with the older guys on many occasions. When I was 17yrs. old dad started letting me take his Ol boat out. I wanted to prove that I had what it took to do it on my own, and I did. Winning several Club tourneys and numerous top 3 finishes. I fished with several different clubs over the next few years and learned a ton about fishing in general. I have come to the realization that I learn something new each and every time I'm on the water, whether it be from the fish or from something or someone. When I graduated from High school I bought my first Bass boat even though I knew that I couldn't afford it. I started fishing with more clubs and started winning some team trail events with a couple of my buddies. I couldn't get enough. Excuse me, I CAN'T get enough. I am chasing my dream of going Pro and seeing myself on TV. I want to hold up that FLW tour or Bassmaster Classic trophy at least once if not many times before I die.
Currently I run a Nitro 190TF, driven by a 175 Yamaha Pro V. I fish all different styles in different conditions but if you asked me how I like to fish I would say fast and hard.
My favorite techniques are pitching a jig, topwater, and cranking.
Feel Free to drop me a line if you have any questions on fishing or lakes in and around South Carolina. |
