Married to Kristal, have three kids who love to fish, Connor, Colton and Cheyenne. Every year my kids look forward to fishing the New Brunswick Sportfishing Association's Kids Tournament in Oromocto.
I fish the Molson Mercury tournament trail as a member of the NBSFA. I fish most competitive tournaments with my brother, Jon Stokdijk. Jon and I got our start fishing with our Dad for brook trout. We've fished together ever since. Once we fished our first bass tournament, we were hooked. I love getting up before the alarm goes off the morning of the tournament, usually one of the first on the water. Love that first bite and hookset to get started. Love that queasy feeling in your stomach when you have a good bag and you're waiting for everyone else to weigh in.
Have won a few tournaments it the last few years, consistently finish in the yearly Top Twenty. We won two tournaments in 2012 and claimed the Team of the Year title. Looking forward to competing again in 2013.
