Ed grew up in the Southern Minnesota/Northern Iowa area, and this is where his first love for water fowling began. When Ed was 9 years old he was fortunate enough to go on his first water fowl hunt with a friend of the family. That first hunt was all it took, and now the stage was set for a lifetime of chasing birds. One of Ed’s early memories of water fowling was experiencing his first Migration day while hunting the South Walnut in Minnesota.

Ed then found employment that allowed him to enjoy his favorite pastime and hunt nearly everyday of the season on the sloughs of southern Minnesota. In 1996 Ed moved to Lake Mills Iowa where he found some guys that shared his same obsession. If Ed is not hunting he is thinking about hunting, and scouting, scouting, scouting. Ed’s motto is “give it 100%, because that is what it takes”. Ed’s favorite thing to do is pile up honkers, and George Lynch provides the tools.

Ed has one son, Wyatt, who is 12 years of age. Wyatt has been by his side in the field since he was 5 years old. Ed passed on the tradition of water fowling the day Wyatt shot his first goose at the age of 9. Ed enjoys watching kids enjoy the outdoors, and proves it by dedicating his time to Ducks Unlimited and helps put on one of Iowa’s largest Green Wing events.

My name is Jeramy Marean, I have been hunting waterfowl in central Iowa for as long as I can remember. I introduced to hunting by my father and grandfather who are still both very avid waterfowl hunters. I have owned and operated my own guide service for 9 years, which is called River Bottom Guide service located in Waukee, IA.
Being asked to join the Lynch Mob family was a perfect fit. With the knowledge of waterfowl hunting, scouting and calling everything has been great. George and all the other staff members are the real deal. Being a part of the pro staff on one of the leading call manufactures is a dream come true. When I'm not in the field, I am spending time with my wife Janine and daughters Hailey and Morgan.

Chris was born and raised in the small central Iowa town of Madrid. Since his first upland trip afield with his uncle and his dog "Odie" at age 12, he has been an avid outdoorsman. After a few years of upland hunting, Chris cut his teeth on the abundant wood duck population in the backwaters of "Jack's Slough". "I can remember it like it was yesterday. It was my first real taste of what waterfowling had to offer. Those little ducks screaming through the trees got me hooked."

As the years progressed, Chris earned a degree in Management from Iowa State University where he continued his passion in the waterfowl arena. With his first yellow lab, Tyler, by his side they learned the ropes of waterfowling. "College let me network with some great people that really opened up my eyes to the sport of waterfowling. These relationships that were built in the field chasing ducks and geese are ones that last a lifetime."

After college, Chris pursed his love of the outdoors in the retail hunting industry and has worked for a couple of prominate retail chains. This is where he was turned on to Lynch Mob Calls. "The first time I layed my hands on a Lynch Mob call I knew that these calls had great potential. The rich sounds and quality craftmanship spoke for themselves. After seeing it in the feild, I know these calls have what it takes to hang'em low."

Outside of work and waterfowling, you may find Chris on an area lake ice fishing or chasing that old tom in the spring turkey woods.

My name is Zach Bivins, I am 21 years old born and raised in Onsted Michigan. I have been exposed to hunting, fishing and trapping ever since I was very young . All this exposure to the outdoors grew on me and now 21 years later has become an addiction and way of life for me. About 5 years ago is was  introduced to the short reed goose call, and furthered my pursuit to mimic the giant local honkers of southern Michigan and it also opened a door as a release for my competitive nature to contest calling.

My name is Ethan Sparks, and I am a native Iowan, I started hunting at the age of five. My first weapon of choice was a BB gun. At the age of nine a close family friend introduced me to waterfowl hunting, and I have been hooked ever since. I have competed in a few calling contests. At my first contest in 2004 I received a second place award at Sportsman’s Warehouse in Ankeny, and was the 2004 Iowa State Fair duck calling champion. I am on our local DU chapter committee, and have helped plan and worked at the banquet the last three years.

I love the outdoors and I love to hunt! Besides waterfowl, I hunt whitetail deer, turkey, elk, mule deer, and most recently buffalo. I also run a trap line. I am a freshman in high school and enjoy participating in baseball, track, and football. I am home schooled which allows me more time for hunting and being outdoors. For me there is nothing like watching the sun come up over a marsh or field while out with a group of friends, just enjoying God’s creation and each others company, while calling in some ducks or honkers.

Mark Hackbarth, 21, was born and raised hunting the fowl rich metro area of Minnesota.   His passion for waterfowling started at age 12 and 'grows every year' he says.   'Being able to hunt from giant Canada's and Mallard's to Richardson's and Ring Bill's, there's plenty to keep thing's interesting throughout the season.'   Mark spends most of his time in Minnesota hunting as a part time guide and with friends and family, but also travels to North and South Dakota chasing the flight.   Aside from just hunting, Mark also gets out with the camera taking photo's and writes for different waterfowl projects.  He currently still resides in Minnesota working in Marketing and looking to accomplish a degree in Business Management and Marketing.
 
Mark has also been advancing on the competition stage recently winning his first championship.   Ever since he was able to make a note on a call he has had an addiction for mimicking ducks and geese.   'There's something about having an entire flock key in on every sound you make, lock up, and come in on a string; it's calls like these that make that happen.'   Going into his third competition season this year, her is excited to see what he can do with his Lynch Mob Call's and we are excited to have him on board.

Kelcey Derrick grew up in central Oregon.  His start in hunting was at age ten chasing chukars all around eastern Oregon with his father.  A year later, his best friend introduced him to waterfowling.  This fueled an undying passion to hunt ducks and geese wherever and whenever he could.  At age 16 his family moved to Idaho, where he received plenty of river time hunting and fishing along the banks of the Snake River.  Now days, Kelcey can be found in layout blinds along the rivers or in fields throughout the great northwest.

Kelcey is proud of his wonderful family.  His wife Lindsey also enjoys the outdoors and took her first deer last fall.  Hunter (6), Kelcey’s oldest son, is growing up hunting and fishing with his father.  His younger son Mason (3), spends most of his time playing outside, and can’t wait to go hunting with the rest of the family.

Kelcey is excited about the opportunity to work with Lynch Mob Calls. Not only is he pleased with the results that these calls bring day in and day out, but he is also happy with the chance to help other waterfowlers improve their success in the field.

My name is Jusitn Reynolds.  I was born and raised in Central Illinois.  I was introduced to hunting at the age of 14 and since it has became my life.  I spend most of my hunting days at our local lake killing ducks and geese, but I also enjoy the thrill of Carlyle Lake and Southern Illinois.  There is something about waterfowling that really gets me pumped up.  I don't know if it is the giant Greenheads or the Canadians, but all I know is that it gets my blood pumping.  There is nothing like calling in a flock of ducks or geese and seeing them put their feet down.  If that doesn't get your heart going then I don't know what would.

Jeff grew up in a small town in Northwest Ohio called Hicksville, imagine that. From when Jeff was 6 years old and watched his Dad come home with pheasants, rabbits, ducks, deer, and fish that was all He ever wanted to do. Jeff shot his first mallard floating a river at the age of 10 with his Uncle and Dad and that was all it took.

At the age of 11 He was bitten with the trapping bug when fur prices were high. Made some good money as a teenager and that was all He did in the fall and winter until He grew up after high school and college. Found out He could be a painting contractor and make decent money nine months out of the year and trap fox and coyotes for three months. Then the fur market money fell off and Jeff found other stuff to do in the winter.

Later after moving to Napoleon, Ohio and meeting his best friend and partner in life, Val Wiemken, Jeff found out that area had a decent goose population. Then the waterfowl bug took over and it has been non - stop ever since. Once He met George Lynch five years ago and heard about his calls and the goose hunting turned a lot better.

One of the greatest thrills while goose hunting was watching his Dad at 79 years old shoot 4 geese with five shots that Jeff called in and flagged 5 years ago.

Jeff goose hunts, turkey hunts, and deer hunts with Val and some friends. In the summer in the evenings He is busy custom painting his decoys and friends decoys, and training the three labs He owns with Val.

Brandon Brown, 23, was born and raised in Anna Illinois which is in the southern most part of Illinois. He was introduced to waterfowl hunting at the age of 8 by his grandfather and has been hooked ever since. Since that day he has chased ducks and geese all over Illinois as well as Missouri, Kentucky and down into Arkansas. Not a day goes by when he does not think about waterfowl hunting or work on his competition calling routine. Brandon has been calling competitively for a little over a year now and has a goal to excel and make a name in competition calling. After high school he attended Shawnee Community College where he played 2 years of baseball. Despite the responsibilities of school and baseball he still found time to hunt as much as possible, most of the time he would hunt before class then again after baseball practice. Currently he is attending Southern Illinois University and is getting his degree in EnvironmentalResources.

My name is Jim McNabb, I have been waterfowl hunting in Iowa for over 25 years. Through the years I have been able to travel and hunt in several states. Waterfowl hunting has become more of a way of life than a hobby. Having a brother who is an Avery Pro-Staffer and fellow Lynch Mob family member has allowed me to try new products and decoys. Being part owner of River Bottom Guide Service and a staff member for Grand Slam Adventures TV gives me the oppurtunity to meet and converse with all walks of life.

Once introduced to Lynch Mob waterfowl calls, it has changed the way we produce. Being 41 years of age, I grew up with flutes. The change to short reeds was a very easy transition with Lynch Mob.

I thank my lovely wife Kelly and 3 children Zach, Alexis and Mitchell for all there support. “Call your own Game

Rob is 36 years old. Born and raised in southern Illinois where he lives today with his wife Tina and 2 boys Trenton, 8, and Toxey, 2. In the spring and summer rob is a contractor building custom homes. Rob's hunting and fishing habits started very early. by the time he was 4 or 5 he was being took to every pothole, goose pit, dove field, deer woods in southern Illinois.  His grandpa and dad are responsible for that. Rob also loves to fish. Bass fishing in tournaments is just another bad habit. But he loves it. Rob’s waterfowl season starts early in Canada then back here.  He is currently a guide putting in over a 100 days a season in Minnesota Arkansas, Nebraska, and Illinois. The rest of the season is spent with his two boys and their papa. “Always no matter what take the little kids. These trips will be your best ones.

Mike grew up in the Detroit metro area and came to love the outdoors thanks to his dad, grandfather and uncle. He spent most of his youth in the northern lower peninsula hunting and fishing on his grandfather’s farm. Deer hunting and walleye fishing are still high on his priority list. He loves to be in a treestand with a recurve and cedar shafts. Waterfowl hunting didn’t happen until the mid 80’s when he hired a young guy named George Lynch to guide him on his first hunt.

George was working on his first goose call at the time and Mike has owned at least one of every call George has made ever since. George and Mike have become friends and Mike helps out in the shop from time to time.

Mike’s passion for the outdoors has grown into an “outdoor classroom” for many he takes hunting. These last couple years Mike has spent teaching new hunters’ different ways to set up a decoy spread and the basics of calling. He’d rather work with the new hunters and see the smiles on their faces when the geese fall than take the shoots from his own blind.

Taylor Schroer was born and raised in the small town of Elk River, Minnesota near some of the state’s best waterfowl hunting. It was there that he learned at an early age what it meant to be a hardcore water fowler, hunting the river during the cold months of November and December. Blessed with many opportunities, Taylor quickly  inherited the obsession for chasing  birds from his father who instilled a respect for animals, as well as the land, deeply in his heart. Taylor began calling about the same time he began to walk and hasn’t stopped improving since. He began contest calling at age twelve and placed in the top five in the junior contests. Since then, he has only blown in a handful of contests, his best coming at age fifteen taking second in state at the junior level for duck calling. Taylor has not competed seriously since, but now that he has found Lynch Mob Calls, he looks forward to hitting the contest stage hard. You will find that  he thrives from being in God’s great outdoors experiencing all He has created living or not and will do anything he can to get  kids involved and excited about conservation and what it means to be a true sportsman.

When he is not in Minnesota or North Dakota chasing Waterfowl, you can find him out in his giant jon boat chasing the elusive musky across Minnesota. He just got hooked a year ago, and is only getting more passionate about spending time with his best friends casting for the giants. Other than waterfowl, Taylor thoroughly enjoys  walking for pheasants behind his family’s German Shorthair in Southern Minnesota during early winter.
 
Taylor recently began working at the Cabela’s in Rogers, Minnesota In the waterfowl department. Shortly after he started there, he tried an “Executioner,” along with all the other calls offered, and nothing could compare. He loves his job at Cabela’s and enjoys meeting new people, but most of all loves learning everything he can from customers. Stop in and see him sometime to try some Lynch Mob Calls!

Born and raised in Moses Lake WA, Danny started his passion for hunting at the early age of 8 with his dad hunting locally in the waterfowl rich Columbia Basin for ducks and geese and it has been his passion ever since.  Danny started as a guide’s assistant for a family friend at the age of 15, and would get his mom to send a sick note to school to get out hunting at least once a week during the season. He then moved onto guiding on his own at 18 and has been a full-time guide ever since.  He says his favorite thing about hunting is, “watching the birds work.”  Sitting in an Ag field, in a pit or a lay down blind, right in the middle of the action, watching hundreds of ducks, or geese work your decoys, and respond to the calls just can’t be beat! That’s where the addiction starts!

When Danny does get a day off from guiding he will still take every chance he gets to get out in the field or water to “fun hunt” with his friends, family, or even just him and his dog. Being a full time guide doesn’t let Danny get out with friends and family very often so he takes every chance he gets to do so. During the summer he works for a vegetable seed company, and does all of the farm work for the company. Danny is in the field 12 months out of the year, being in the Ag business is nice for him because he is always meeting new farmers and getting new hunting ground! Plus farming allows him to do all the hunting he wants in the winter time. All the long days in the tractor is where he learned how to blow the short reed. “Going from a flute to a short reed is a whole different world!”  In the summer when Danny isn’t in the tractor he enjoys the hot summer days out boating, or fishing on Moses Lake. He will take any weekends possible to go camping on other lakes around Washington.

Evan Smith is 16 years old and a hunter from Spring Hill, Kansas, and goes to school at Spring Hill High where he is a sophomore.  He plays football and baseball for Spring Hill High as well.  Evan first went hunting with his dad for upland birds at the age of 8.  Evan found his love for waterfowling at the age of 10 in Indiana hunting with his dad and uncle. 

Evan spends the fall and winter months hunting waterfowl on all of the reservoirs and lakes in the northeastern part of Kansas.  He mainly hunts puddle ducks and geese but also loves to hunt upland birds as well.  He is a member of Ducks Unlimited and Delta Waterfowl.  His favorite method of hunting is on the sandbars of the Missouri River with decoys all around him.
 
The favorite part of hunting the river is pulling up to a sandbar and seeing thousands of ducks and geese pile out of the sandbar that he will be hunting in a couple of minutes.  Evan starts the season off by hunting teal in Kansas on the Marais Des Cygnes reservoir.  Then the beginning of duck season you can find him on the big waters of Kansas and local ponds.  Then late season it's all about the honkers which is anything from fields to the river.  Then once the season is over you can find him practicing calling, training his dog Drake, watching hunting video's, and getting ready for next season.

Evan has a great love for waterfowl hunting and is more than willing to go anytime

John became interested in hunting at an early age, thanks to his dad for introducing him and taking him out for his first hunt.  John grew up in Plymouth, Michigan but has hunted all over the state.  He currently lives in Howell, Michigan.  He hunts just about everything from nice whitetails to Michigan Black Bear and recently went on a trip to Scotland and shot a Red Stag and a couple of Roe Deer, but birds are his passion.  It’s hard to beat the fun of fooling a nice long beard in the spring.  John was introduced to water fowl hunting about 20 years ago and has taken the sport to a new level, from scouting birds, to timing their arrivals and departures, to perfecting his calling using Lynch Mob calls.  He has prided himself on finding the field with the “X” on it.  Most of his hunting is field hunting for geese and ducks.  John is very passionate about out door conservation and has recently gotten involved in goose banding and an organization called Michigan Land Rescue, which cleans Michigan’s state lands.  He also enjoys introducing the outdoors and hunting to our youths and thinks it’s great to see a smile on a child’s face when they shoot their first bird.  He really enjoys the camaraderie of the sport.  He says that it’s awesome to be out with 3 or 4 of your buddies and “high fiving” each other when big birds are pounding the ground. John went from using silhouettes and shells to Green Head Gear FFD's and motion decoys that we hunt over now. John really enjoys talking to other hunters and is always looking to improve his techniques and feels there is always something to be learned about water fowl hunting.  John is a member of Mossy Oaks pro staff and now is a proud member of Lynch Mobs pro staff.
