First sorry for the delay between reports it's just been crazy busy guiding this year. This obviously a good problem to have and generally means the fishing is good. It has been an a very good bite overall this year for both the Bass and Crappies (specks). We've used a two prong ...

To clarify, I am not back fishing yet due to the recent surgery, so my reports are some second hand information and some look at what I would be doing if I was back on the water and physically able to fish. As for an update on my progress I believe I have taken some big steps ...

It's that time of the year that we're fishing only a few days each week and only on those days that allow for both a FUN and SAFE trip! We cancel or reschedule when the weather is just too cold or nasty to have an enjoyable day on the water. However, when we have been out, the ...
