Greg Hackney’s exterior often plays like 60 grit sandpaper. But beneath the beard and a bit of loner’s independence, comes a generous heart for sharing as many deep details about how to catch a bass as you’ve got time to sit and listen to. Hackney has a gift for teaching the sport he loves.
However, as much as he loves it, he also unapologetically takes a day of rest from the water when his mind and body tell him to. Even at times when his competition is in the midst of yet another 12-hour practice day.
And it’s working.
