Glen graduated from Kensington High School and then went on to graduated from Bemidji State University with a Mathematics education major. He has taught high school for 5 years and middle school for 29 years in the Brainerd school district. Glen started out fishing at a young age with has dad. They would go up to the Chippewa River, which was a couple of miles from their family farm. They did a lot of bullhead fishing to start out and then realized that carp were more fun to catch because of their size. Glen has been married to his wife, Marilu with 3 kids Kate (17), Elisabeth (15), and Nick (13).
Glen's favorite fishing story that he loves to retell
"I was on a guide trip in my boat watching a guy, fighting what I think is a giant walleye, he would gain on the fish then the drag would go out. I'm standing next to him with the net and when he gets it close to the boat it was a cannon down rigger. He was slightly embarrassed."
Walleye fishing is Glen's favorite with using live-bait rigs and jigs. He enjoys taking families and relatives out fishing. Especially fishing with his best friend, Leighton. Glen likes fishing the first two hours of daylight usually during the Spring and Fall the best.
Glen has 32 years in guiding experience (29 in the Brainerd area and 3 years around Prior Lake) He has guided over 4000 trips. He has fished the Camp Confidence Tourney with one first place finish and other second and third place finishes. |
