Since his first smallie in 1994, he has caught and released over 35,000 with 20,000 coming while kayaking and wading across southern Wisconsin. His talks and articles the past 25 years have turned thousands onto the fun and excitement of chasing smallmouth bass on rivers and lakes throughout Wisconsin. During 2025 he caught and released over 1,100 kayak smallies in Door County! He is on the National Pro Staffs for Jackson Kayak, Malone Auto Racks/Trailers, Bending Branches Paddles, Astral Design, St. Croix Rods, Keitech USA, Z-Man Fishing, Glacier Outdoors, Rebel Lures, Acme/Kalin's and Gopher Tackle.



Presentations

Bill Schultz
 Kayaking & Kayak Fishing Door County, Wisconsin
BWCA - main floor Sat 10:30am-11:15am 
This is the talk I gave two years ago and it was extremely well-received with a large audience and many emailed requests for the PDF right after the show and actually I still get requests as it appeals to both the smallmouth bass kayak angler and the many who just love to kayak Door County. It covers a Tremendous amount of information including "all" the kayak launches on the peninsula and Washington Island as well as most of the "very" best places to kayak for the top beautiful spots. It also, touches on the best areas to chase smallmouth bass as well as looking at the top lures I've used to catch thousands of smallies in Door County over the past 31 years. As some in attendance are "newbies" to both kayaking and kayak fishing I touch on kayaks and paddles. This is a very popular talk.
