I just love fishing in rough water and there's been plenty of it in the last month with all the big blows that have been occurring. Those big winds especially those right in your teeth generate a lot of white water and a moving surf.  It stirs up the bait and gets the stripers active. Today was a perfect example. I fished this afternoon in a big...

..but the Trout did come thru for us this morning. I had met Sam Brown his father Dennis and Sam's girlfriend Tany up at Old Town Bait and Tackle early this morning with a tide that was high and still coming in.

It may well be natural processes in Norfork Lake that led to the massive fish kill in the National Fish Hatchery but its important to remember its not natural at all. There wouldn’t be trout a hatchery or the issues of dissolved oxygen without the 81-year-old half mile long concrete and steel dam. The hatchery […]

Solid article in Outdoor life on the decisions facing fisheries managers in heavily pressured fisheries like the North Platte in Wyoming. You might recall Wyoming fisheries managers banning pegged beads or worms in June on catch and release sections of the North Platte to protect trout from hooking injuries or mortality.

We have a full moon. Stable water temps in the 60s and the bass are feeding aggressively. This might have been my best week of fishing all year. I have guided 4 days this week and my catch rate has been 40 per day with 10 fish a day over 4lbs and best 5 close to 25lbs each day. The deep ledge bite as always is really good with a big plug. The fro...

This is one of many hefty schoolies that I landed in the last couple of  days. This one hit my NLBN paddle tail a hot lure this fall. The stripers and bait are on the move along the oceanfront.  The last few days have featured big blitzes of schoolies in multiple locations. Most of these fish have been huge schools of schoolies in the 18 to 22 i...
