The Victoria Day Weekend is great not only because it is a long weekend, but because it is also a long weekend with fishing season open! I’ve been out twice at this point, and I’m hoping to get out at least one more time. On day one, I headed out first thing in the morning, […]

It should come as no surprise that I love to fish. What some people don’t understand is that while the fishing is obviously an important element, there are others that are just as important. Things like the anticipation of a big trip, the planning process to make sure things are “just right”, and the inevitable […]

This past weekend was the opener for the 2013 Walleye and Pike Opener in my district, and I was out on the water first day. It was great to get out, but it was a tough day on the water. Many of you will acknowledge that weather patterns have a dramatic effect on the fishing […]

When I put the boat away in the fall of 2012 I knew it would be a long time before I’d be out on the water again, but boy, you forget how long that really is! When you close up for the winter, you’ve just finished a full season of fishing and boating, and you […]

Looking back over twenty years of annual fishing trips, I confess there was always one thing missing…the fish. Each year there is talk of the new tackle, the new strategies, that “this could be the year”, but the results are the same: great nature shots, wonderful food, and an emphasis on how good it was […]

A few years ago we were up at Esnagami Lodge, and when we headed out on our first morning we knew we were planning on jigging for Walleye. We had a guide with us, and he took us to an area about 100 feet off of an island, and assured us that fish would be […]

It’s the Easter Weekend, and the weather has been spectacular! I decided to give my wife some time to herself and take the kids on a drive out to Conestoga Lake, my “home lake” to get a first hand look at the water levels, and to show the kids how the dam works. Conestoga Lake […]

In this episode I confess to having too much tackle, and not even knowing what some of it is. I’ll also discuss some of my storage plans! [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4txy2l5Syhg&w=560&h=315]

I’m a full time husband and father of two, I’m passionate and am passionate about other things such as fishing and the outdoors. I started fishing when I was in my late teens, going on an annual father and son fishing trip, that had less to do wish fishing, and more to do with fellowship. In […]
