It was beautiful when I first got there but shortly after a slow shower set in. After about four hours the shower was over and it RAINED. I pushed minnows 3-6' for almost 5 hours and only kept 12 good fish and one dink that wasn't going to

Long line trolled 1/8 oz jigs on beaver Saturday and Sunday. Fishing 13-20 Fow next to channel. Fish were super aggressive and wanted the jigs pulled fast. Mostly trolled 1.5 mph to 1.6. Kept a limit both days and released the rest. All

Okay, so it's mid/late June but I decided to do some longlining before the sun got up and drove them deep. The fish actually stayed in the top 8 FOW most of the time I was out. Took a buddy and his son out to MCL just to check it out. The

I haven't been fishing in just about a month. I started a new job about three weeks ago and have been taking some time to adjust. Now that I am settling I decided it was time to get back on the water. I had today off and was on the water by

The fun never ends in my family! The last month has been as busy as ever as we've celebrated the birth of our first son, several birthdays, and Father's Day. I'm proud to announce that Weston Derek Frick was born on 5/27/20 and tipped the scales

Of all the techniques used to catch crappie pushing is by far the most powerful. Heavy action rods, super strong braid fishing line with substantial leaders, weighty weights and big baitcasting reels to crank up the crappie once they bite. Amazingly even with all the bulky tackle crappie just can’t resist biting a crankbait being pushed.
We kept our limit of 25 each and threw back another 20-30. 12 foot rods w/ spinning reels. White braid line 20# test. 1/4 oz jigs tipped with minnows. Several things stood out to me. I would have thought crappie would have

I had a routine dental appointment this morning so Candi and I got out later than we would normally this time of year, but what we lacked in numbers, we more than made up for in quality fish. We had 2.5 hrs of fishing time and 20-30 minutes

I can’t believe she wanted to go again. We got to Woodsons Landing at first light and got in line for the parade of boats, or should I say the boat show. All brand new nice and shiny. Fished Bayou Saline today pulling 6 different colors crank

After a long and stressful work week I hit the bank of my local lake with no boat, one ultra light rod and reel, two jigs (spare just in case), a small container of weinie chunks, a jar of crappie nibbles, and no cooler! Keepin it simple and

Safer is at home but 4 months away from the Grand-babies is difficult. Daughter and son in law have been working from home and being very meticulous with the girls in VA, as have we in our endeavors in TN, but a road trip by us this weekend

As much as we may agree to disagree on things, it’s because I know we are cut from the same cloth. We’re both stubborn, strong willed, and when we go at something we do it with y’all of our hearts. He taught me a love for the outdoors, how

Jeff and I took a trip down to Delton on Sunday to try our luck on Crooked Lake. If's been so long since I've been fishing I wasn't sure if I remembered how. We got on the water about 6:30 and were the first to launch, with a line of boats

My long time partner finally found some time to join me fishing so we took a trip back to our favorite water (which shall remain nameless!) We hit the water about 9:30 and started a slow circuit of the pond. Water temperature was 67, air temp

Seriously, hate to admit that being north of 50 years on this earth and I have never used Hot Dogs for bait for any species of under water inhabitants....until today. Ketchn has of course been catching them on a jig head tipped with the Bar

Has anyone out there had a Terrova that would run for a short period of time then will stop running. After about 15 minutes it will run for another 5-10
