Morizo Shimizu Bassmaster Elite Angler

At ibassin.com, we have a strong connection with the fishing scene in Japan. One of that county's most recognizable anglers on the Bassmaster Tour is Morizo Shimizu. He still considers Japan home but has been fishing in the States for almost a full decade. Sporting a funky hair style and infectious laugh, he has done very well over the years. This past year was no exception. Qualifying for his first Bassmaster Classic and a 5th place at Lake Mead during the grueling WON Bass U.S. Open, he is pumped for 2011. 

We met up with him at ICAST this past July. While filming an up-coming fishing special and working the Evergreen International booth, one of his main sponsors, he wanted to give a warm thank you to the fans.
