My name is Kris Johnson, born May 25, 1977 in Washington, DC. I grew up in Nanjemoy, MD and was educated in the Charles County School System. Upon graduating Lackey High School in Marbury, MD I then attended Morgan State in Baltimore, MD. I was an Accounting major. I managed to receive 33 credits toward the degree and I will be in pursuit of a Marketing degree through Rappahannock Community College. I grew up in a country environment with a loving mother and father that have been married for 38 years. My dad John Johnson taught me at an early age about nature. My first time fishing, my dad took me to Smallwood State Park in Marbury, MD. My first fish was a 6 pound catfish. It was a joy for a 6 year old to see nature and the wonders of it around me. I instantly fell in love with fishing. I spent many days with my father bottom fishing The Lower Potomac and Chesapeake Bay for spot, perch, and croaker. When I learned how to drive, I spent time at Smallwood State Park learning how to fish for Largemouth bass. I was a little frustrated at first but I learned that fishing is like a puzzle. I needed to piece it together. Now at 30 years old I am an avid tournament angler that fishes 100 days a year. I have placed in the Top 25 in the Wal-Mart BFL Bass Tournaments and also have placed in the Top 15 fishing the US Anglers Choice Tournaments. I feel that my strongpoint is fishing for bass with soft stickbaits, spinnerbaits and shallow crankbaits. I also love to use the old standard Texas-rigged worm. My favorite area to fish is the Potomac River because of the diversity of the fishery. I also have a strong background in saltwater fishing for stripers, bluefish, grey trout, and croakers. I like the fact that it is a brackish waterway so you can catch redfish and stripers also too if your lucky. I love to fish Lake Anna, the Rappahannock, River, and the Potomac River. I am sponsored by Vicious fishing, and will be also part of Angler's Resource.org. I will be fishing the Wal-Mart BFL Northeast division, the National Bass Circuit-Potomac East and West Divisions, a Stren Series Tournament on the Potomac River, and a Potomac BASS Weekend Series Tournament. Others tournaments may be considered.
