Husband to Stormy and father of two wonderful kids—15-year-old Carter and 8-year-old Laityn.
A dedicated tournament fisherman and guide, I live and breathe bass fishing, with a personal best of 13.12!
My passion for fishing runs deep, rooted in the legacy of my parents, the absolute hammer Donald Burks and the amazing Paula Burks.
Fishing isn't just a hobby; it's a family tradition that binds us together. Blessed to do what I love with those I love.

A Passed Down Tradition
Every generation seemed to have a calling to fish. My grandfather loved to crappie fish and over the years has fed hundreds of people with his catches.
​
My dad has been a tournament fisherman for well over thirty years. So fishing is in my blood.
Reel Talk
As a fishing instructor, the best part of my job is helping others achieve their personal best. I believe that fishing is not just about catching a fish, but it’s about the whole experience – the memories, and the joy that comes with it. My goal is to provide my clients an unforgettable experience while they hone their fishing skills. With my expert guidance, you’re sure to gain the knowledge you need to reel in those massive fish!

I want to share the joy of being out on the water and catching big fish so I am in my second year serving as captain for a high school fishing team.
Last year I captained a team of young anglers from Brock Texas and this year I have the privilege of captaining for my own son and his teammate for Stephenville high school.
