Fishing Isn’t Just for Buddies

When I started fishing as a young boy, it meant heading to the local creek or small pond fishing for trout, and usually catching suckers or chub. When I got into my late teens I was included in the annual Father and Son Fishing Trip. At the time I was 17, which was old enough […]

Hilmer Lake Fly In Trip 2014

I’ve updated this report on my trip to Hilmer Lake, with Hearst Air in 2014. I realized that my images did not show, so where goes. I did post my Shore Lunch video earlier, but it’s time to give the review! There were six of us on this trip, 4 who had been there before, […]

Nice Pike On Conestoga Lake

I was out on Conestoga Lake a few nights ago, for a couple hours of fishing. We were focussing on a specific bay, and working a shore line that was ranging for 10-20 feet. The fish were holding in the 10-12 foot range so we were working that depth. I tried using crawler harnesses, but […]

Storing my Hard Baits

As I get ready to head on my Fly In Fishing Trip with Hearst Air, I’ve been getting my equipment ready. One of the things I have to do is get a lot of tackle and gear to fit in a small space, as their are both weight and size restriction for the float plane. […]

First Pike Tournament

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.
