We've fished down in Naples, Florida. We've fished out in Idaho. We've been everywhere fishing, and I think the best part of it is that it brings my family together and it gives us an opportunity to be around each other.

I went to USC. I wasn't a rich kid or anything like that, so I had to get a scholarship. Went to USC; my first year, I took 26 units, so I got to have a nickname. Everyone goes, 'There's 26.'
