Joel VandeKrol
Senior Digital Editor
Joel VandeKrol is an Iowa native who grew up chasing walleyes on interior rivers like the Cedar and Shell Rock in a flat-bottom boat.
He still loves walleyes, but these days he prefers targeting smallmouth bass on the mighty Mississippi River. You'll find a jerkbait tied on one of his rods year-round. He rarely hits the water without his camera in hand and It’s not uncommon for him to set the rod down to capture the moment instead—something he's learned to accept and embrace, even if he doesn't always fully understand it.
With years of experience in the fishing industry as a freelance writer, photographer, and videographer, Joel is a former contributor to Target Walleye and Target Crappie.
