The winter season is what I’ve always said to be the best time of year to fish Lake Taneycomo.  Why?  Because of low fishing pressure coupled with the abundance of fish in the lake especially larger rainbows below Fall Creek (out of the trophy area).  I believe typically bigger mature trout move out of the […] The post January 28 2026 Fishing Repo...

Striper: Fishing remains productive using live bait and 3/8 ounce bucktails especially near Rudds Creek Bridge and old river channel bends. Slow presentations in deeper water (15-25 feet) yield the best results. 2. Largemouth Bass: Bass are holding […]

Snake River Eddies and ledge rock pools remain the best water to target with nymph rigs and dry flies.  The sweet spot has been in a tight window from between noon and 2 PM most days.  Midge imitations and soft hackle patterns have been effective below the surface with midge adult and midge cluster patterns working best on the surface and in notic...

Today was just plain cold. We’ve had duck hunters come in and say how brutally cold this morning’s hunts were but ducks were out there like crazy. So many redheads flying around. The high was 36 while the low was 25 with light to gentle winds. Gusts up to 32mph. Currently it’s 36 feels like […] The post Hatteras Island Fishing Report appeared firs...

In this video Simon ties a unique variation on the traditional pheasant tail nymph. With winter conditions a heavy tungsten bead on a jigged hook was a must. Simon kept high flows in mind while designing this fly and aimed … Continue reading →

Blacks and Stripes I went out yesterday not knowing what to expect. Prior to the weather last week there had been a good Marlin bite with both Blacks and Stripes along with Blues being found.

If you’ve been following the East Coast saltwater scene you’ve likely heard the talk on the docks: the Striped Bass fishery is changing. We believe in being upfront with our anglers so let’s address the reality.

At Christmas it was 70 degrees and we were fishing in shorts and T-shirts. A month later we are in a historic cold front. The fishing has been really good on the days the weather allows us to get out on the lake. The water temp was in the mid 50s a few weeks ago now it's in the 30s. Will they bite?yes. Do you have to change it up a bit?yes. T...

Give me a call or shoot me an […] The post Pamlico Sound Winter Redfish R...

But tucked just upstream of Holter Dam lies one of Montana’s most overlooked fisheries—Holter Lake. For anglers willing to trade current seams for open water this reservoir offers some of the most consistent and rewarding stil...

The answer is Yes. A year ago tournaments at Guntersville were being dominated by Livescope this time of year. The conditions are perfect for Livescope but in the Toyota series the vast majority of fish being weighed in are caught power fishing. Bass are highly evolved creatures and their instincts prioritize preservation of self and preservation...
