Welcome to the web site for well known Wolf River Country Freelance Outdoor Writer & Photographer Joel “Doc” Kunz. Joel is most well known for his articles in Midwest Outdoors where he received TWO “Readers Choice Awards” in 2006 and 2013. He has also been published numerous times in Wisconsin Outdoor News, Badger Sportsman and numerous other local and regional magazines. A well known “River Rat” Joel has been a part of over 40 TV shows, including Babe Winkleman’s Good Fishing, John Gillespie’s Waters & Woods, Bob Jensen’s Fishing The Midwest, Hitting The Outdoors with Brian Noble and Outdoor Wisconsin with Dan Small. He has also been a regular guest on Dan’s statewide radio show and with Mike Jackson on his national broadcast. “Doc” loves fishing, especially for walleye but has a great fondness for smallmouth bass and northern pike. His home waters are those of the Wolf River, but spends time on the Wisconsin, Mississippi, Fox and Rock Rivers along with the Bay of Green Bay and Little Bay de noc whenever he can.

Be sure to pick up Midwest Outdoors and look for Doc’s NEW byline “Old Guy Fishing” as he discusses a multitude of topics centered on making a day of fishing more fun, safe and productive for the older angler, such as myself.
