About Harmon
Harmon Marien began fishing at three years old, catching his very first bass at his grandparents’ cottage in Northern Wisconsin. This family tradition has grown into a competitive career and a lifelong pursuit of becoming a professional bass fisherman.
A graduate of Northland Pines High School, Harmon, with the help of his father, created the Northland Pines Bass Fishing Team, where he competed in local tournaments across Northern Wisconsin. From there, Harmon signed on with the McKendree University Bass Fishing Team to continue his fishing career at the collegiate level.
During his time at McKendree, Harmon ranked first on the team for three consecutive years. He competed in circuits such as Major League Fishing College Fishing, Bassmaster College Series, Association of Collegiate Anglers, and other tournament trails, which took him across the country to compete against the nation’s top collegiate anglers.
While achieving top-place finishes throughout his five years on the bass fishing team, Harmon graduated with a Bachelor’s in Marketing as well as a Master of Business Administration in Digital Marketing.
Today, Harmon continues his competitive career fishing semi-professionally in the Major League Fishing Toyota Series and Bassmaster Opens. In his rookie season, he won the Major League Fishing Toyota Series Northern Division Angler of the Year, achieved four top-ten finishes to date and placed sixth in the Bassmaster Open Angler of the Year points, qualifying him for the Elite Series Qualifiers.
