 I see the ferns in the woods and along the roads are turning brown. To me that signals the beginning of Fall and the end of Summer. It was a great summer filled with good times. Think back on your summer. My summer was filled with new friends to fish with, some days I will never forget. It was the laughs, the fish stories and great food. And yes, we did catch a lot of fish!
We ~Read More~
I was sitting in a nearby diner the other day trying to fill my desire for broasted chicken. Due to the couples megaphone loud conversation with the waitress I could not help but overhear their braggadocios claims. “We picked over 40 quarts of wild blueberries in just a couple of hours”. Had to be a fib! Nobody could pick like that in a cultured, fertilized blueberry patch much less out in the wild. Wild blueberries are ~Read More~
 LOCATION: Port Clinton, Ohio
EVENT: Cabela’s Master Walleye Circuit Tournament
I pulled in to the parking lot of the Super 8 motel in Port Clinton. It was about 9pm, but it seemed unusually dark. Then it hit me. Right in the mouth, a flapping bug. Too late, a couple of juicy mayflies apparently caught a reflection off one of my cavities and attacked. I now can attest they DO NOT taste like chicken. The flying ~Read More~
 One wonderful benefit of attending a large number of fishing shows every winter for the past two decades is I have made a bunch of friends who have a passion for catching fish. My friends include amateurs and pros, and even a few of the media types. All of the pros, from charter captains to tournament fishermen, have a passion for helping the everyday angler catch more fish, enjoy the fishing experience more and significantly raise ~Read More~
 “Want to spend a day fishing for walleye with legend Mark Martin?”
“Just tell me when and where and I’ll be there!”
Mark Martin invited me to spend a day on the waters surrounding Sault Ste. Marie, MI with him and a couple of friends, for a day of pre-tournament fishing for the upcoming 3 day Bay Mills Invitational. I was so excited I hardly slept the night before.
The Bay Mills Invitational is a stop on ~Read More~
 Gary Fish Finder
I want an avatar, that mythical carbon copy of myself. It would be great. Just think how cool that would be. “Honey, what chores on my list will you be working on today?” would be answered with what females love to hear “what ever you want!”. While Gary Avatar slaves away cutting the grass, cleaning the basement or painting the sewing room, Gary Fish Finder could be out drowning some worms or makin’ ~Read More~
 No matter where you looked this weekend you saw something consistent throughout the show. Regardless of age or gender, or what outdoor activity brought you to the show, or whether you were an exhibitor or attendee, you eventually ended up wearing one, if not many, of these. It didn’t matter the time of day, what you had on, what side of the table you were occupying or whether you were giving or appreciating a ~Read More~

 Aimee & I rolled out slow on this fine morn – it just felt like the kind of day you ease into. After all it was Sunday. Those devoted to the “religion” known as ice fishing were at the doors at 10 am, ready to check out all that was new in the industry, learn new techniques and run into their fellow parishioners.
We chose this day to walk around and check out what was ~Read More~
