BIOGRAPHY
Ron Champion is a seasoned tournament angler who grew up fishing creeks, ponds and reservoirs in middle Tennessee. Started fishing when he was about 5 years old with his dad. Coming over from the Bass Boat side of fishing it didn't take long for Ron to make a impact in the Kayak world. Although Bass fishing is his passion, his most memorable trips are catching Crappie, BlueGill & Catfish with his kids..
Ron is a family man and has a 11 year old son “Branton” and a 7 year old daughter “Makayla”. He has been with his wife “Chrissy” since 2005.. Both kids love to fish and he takes ...them every chance he gets.
Ron is always ready to talk fishing, so find him on Facebook at www.facebook.com/ron.champion.16 and also at www.facebook.com/ronchampionfishing/
