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 […]

Mystery Tackle Box January 2014

Well, I’m late again! I must be delayed with the endless days of shovelling this year. Can you believe how much snow and cold we’ve been getting in Southwestern Ontario? I just keep reminding myself that in a few months, I’ll be fishing on that snow after it’s melted, and that it’s a good sign […]

Jigging Initiatives

I love catching Walleye, and I’ve had my best success catching them by using vertical jigging, but there are some other jigging techniques I’d like to learn to use as well. A couple I’m hoping to use on the upcoming trip, are bouncing jigs down drop offs and shelves,as well has pop or rip jigging […]
