Name: Jonathan Shoemaker
Location: Elyria OH
Boat: Angler V 185F

About Jonathan: Living next to Lake Erie forces me to fish in some of the toughest waves and wind any fisherman can experience. Owning an Advantage V-210 allows me to just concentrate on fishing, because I know the boat will handle anything thrown its way.
