Michael Knapp

I am Michael Knapp, from Greeneville TN. I grew up fishing with my grandfather on Lake Okeechobee in Florida. The passion for fishing comes from my grandfather as does my knowledge of the sport. I started fishing FLW events in 2018 where I qualified for my first regional tournament and did so again in 2019. 2021 will be an exciting year as I pick back up with FLW as well as Big Bass Tour and possibly other tournament circuits!

Tournament fishing was just the beginning to my future goal of fishing as a career. In August of 2019 I decided to take on the “influencer” role in the fishing industry and have dove head first into it! You can check me out on YouTube and Instagram at Michael Knapp Fishing!
