    Old Ice Fishing Shanty

    Now the fun starts. I have already started to salivate thinking about freshly caught perch fillets and cole slaw. My pillow in the morning makes me wonder if my wife’s lap dog was getting me back for denial of treats. First ice is here! I am pretty sure the ice is now at a thickness that will safely hold my body from taking an ice bath.

    Santa Ice Fishing

    Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow! We have been blessed (or cursed, depending on your attitude) with a substantial dumping of the cold, wet stuff. Here in the eastern half of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan we have had between 12 – 24 inches depending where you live.

    Better get those snowmobiles tuned up folks! We have one the best trail systems in the entire Midwest here. Hundreds of ~Read More~

    Reflections on Fall

    Fall Leaves

    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~

    Fall Ferns

    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~

    Blueberry

    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~

    Mayflies

    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~

    Mark Martin

    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~
