Dave Bosanko spent 30 years as staff biologist at two of the University of Minnesota’s field stations. An avid fisherman and naturalist, he has long enjoyed applying his extensive field research to patterning fish location and behavior, and observing how these fascinating species interact with one another in the underwater web of life. He lives north of Minnesota’s Twin Cities. Dan Johnson began his journey in outdoor communications in the late 1980s, penning fishing and hunting columns for local newspapers.
