Michael Lake
I started fishing for bass, catfish and panfish as a kid with my Grandfather on Lake Moultrie in South Carolina. I loved those early mornings and late evenings hanging out with the men "doing work" with a fishing rod.
Elite soccer and school took over in high school, but I really picked up bass fishing in college as a break from playing college soccer, and was hooked from my first two pounder off my Great Uncle's dock!
I started fishing tournaments as a rookie police officer in Greenwood, SC and bought my first boat.
I now live in Camden County, GA, just above Jacksonville, FL, where I work as an NCIS Agent attached to the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force in Jacksonville, and continue to coach Competitive Youth Soccer Teams.
I fish the American Bass Anglers St John's North Division, as well as the Florida First Responder Bass Tour. I also fish the Big Bass Events held in Florida and South Carolina.
I participate in multiple events supporting members and organizations of the U.S. Military. I am a member of Team Real American Heroes supporting the Reel American Heroes Foundation and their annual tournament.
I also had a Top 12 Finish in the 250 Boat Warriors on the Water Tournament including the Warriors on the Water competition held on Lake Jordan, NC and heavily supported by Fort Bragg area Commands.
I have been using Flatlands Custom Tackle baits for quite some time, and have used several of his baits to win and place on more than one occasion.
I am also supported by Sherm Truss as a member of Team Sherm's Marine.
