The Gemini Twins

Twins Marty and Scott Glorvigen had one goal in mind while growing up—to make a living in the fishing industry. “We were fanatical about it,” says Marty.

A Lund dealership in Grand Rapids, Minnesota, offered the brothers a chance to guide during their late teens, and the two set the hook on their newfound livelihood. “Most kids aspire to be pro baseball players, but Ron and Al Lindner left a big impression on us,” says Marty of the fishing celebrities.

The Glorvigens began fishing local tournaments and winning them. Lund quickly took notice and added the duo to its Pro Staff. The move was smart on Lund’s part, as the Glorvigens have never forgotten where they got their start. While the two were making money guiding, they started their own business in their parents’ basement not long after getting their degrees in industrial technology and engineering. The business, Gemini Sports Marketing, specializes in made-to-order tournament apparel.

Scott won the Professional Walleye Championship in 2004, and back in 2000 he won the Wal-Mart RCL Walleye Championship, taking home a purse of $300,000. “That was a big payday,” says Marty, recalling the excitement. “The press on that was phenomenal. But it should be known that Scott fishes all of my spots,” he adds with a chuckle."The Gemini Twins"
