Charlie's introduction to waterfowl hunting came by way of a Northern Minnesota blind at the age of 8, hunting big water bluebills and ringnecks with his father. As the years have passed, those early days seem like recent memory to him, each and every time he sets foot in the field. While starting on big water divers,his favorite type of waterfowling is pursuing large marsh greencaps. He also enjoys spending time in his Power Hunter in pursuit of corn fed canucks. Charlie's experiences in the natural world have led to a firm ethic and commitment to conservation, which he hopes to instill in his two sons. Charlie is in the field of water resources, and currently works at the University of Minnesota as a research associate. While not in pursuit of waterfowl, Charlie can be found paddling, backpacking, on the trout stream, in his basement "matching the local fare" at his tying bench, or on his couch watching Gopher Hockey. Charlie currently resides in St. Michael Minnesota with his wife and two sons.
