Re: What's happen with the smallies ?

Plus, the guy that won with smallmouth was from Georgia, I believe, not exactly a smallmouth area Actually Shayne McFarlin from GA fell to 6th place on Saturday, it was Ron Nelson from MI who took first place.

Re: pan fishing and cafishing2017

Sounds exciting Matt. Do you use some kind of beeper or clicker on your rod setup like they do with carp rigs? You know to give an auditory warning when a fish bites.

Re: pan fishing and cafishing2017

Congradulations to you and your granddaughter Matt! Looks like you both had fun. On my end I went to a new spot for me in the Northern Adirondacks where I thought there would be trout. Literally first cast and the fish slammed my lure! But to my surprise it was a big fat PERCH. I ended up catching a...

From there I headed East to my fav Champlain trib to have at the salmon with my fly rod. Saw a kid with his dad and sister wa...

Good job Troutcrazy! Nice to see you were luckier than we were. Hopefully things will pick up after the ice is totally gone.

Re: 12/8/14 frostbite river fishing update for fall 2016

2/25/2017 good to get back on a river. :) Amen to that! Had been over 2 months since I fished open water. The lakers we're not biting with the 4-5 ft waves close to shore so I headed to the river but by the time I got there it was POORING rain. I donned my raincoat and gave it a go just the same fi...

Re: frostbite shore fishing for lakers updated 10/29/2016

Like Matt said it wasn't the best day of fishing but it beat a day at the office for sure! That one hit I had was pretty exciting. I had been there about 20 mins and my rod bent over and fish on in about 4 fow. The laker was about 5-6lbs. It came up and broke surface and as it did that it spit the s...
