 I sit here glancing out the window of my office. It seems to me trees are changing from luscious greens to beautiful shades of reds, oranges and yellows. Just before my eyes Fall is here. I must say it is my favorite time of the year. All the outdoor lovers’ activities are in full swing or soon will be.
The fishing in October is remarkable, with salmon, trout, walleye, perch, pike and even cisco waiting ~Read More~
 My friend, Mark Martin—walleye tournament pro and fishing educator—stopped by my log home in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula one morning a few weeks ago. He was on his way to his Lake Superior cabin located on the state’s Keweenaw Peninsula.
Knowing he had already traveled nearly one-thousand road miles the days prior, I offered him a fresh cup of coffee, thinking it would be the just the thing he needed. But I was wrong. “I’m not quite old ~Read More~
 I sit staring out the window at the falling snow, knowing that eventually I will have to go outside and jump on the tractor to plow, and then man the snow shovel. There are a few February activities that put a grin on my chin – plowing and shoveling not being one of them. Great ice fishing is one of my most cherished winter activities.
There’s plenty of ice – guys around here are driving their trucks ~Read More~
 I love the fall. There is sooo much for the sportsman when the leaves are falling. I am so excited I just got one of those shudders. The twitch you get from holding a really fine fishing combo or that gorgeous gun you have always wanted and now it’s yours. I mean it is kinda like when your woman cooks up an excellent meal, gives out a little shoulder rub and gives you one of those ~Read More~
 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~
 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~
 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~
