Joe Wells grew up in Newberg, Oregon and always enjoyed the outdoors. He spent many days hiking with family and being in the outdoors, but the fishing bug caught him at an early age and turned into a major obsession, as he got older. Joe attended Oregon State University, majored in Fisheries and Wildlife Sciences, and was an active member of the Alpha Gamma Rho fraternity. He probably should have become an engineer, but Joe spent too much time skipping class chasing winter steelhead on the Alsea. Joe went on to a
career in sales after graduating college, which led to some great life experiences and is where he met his wife Alex. Joe has since settled down in St Paul with his beautiful wife Alex and sweet daughter Adley.
