Well since the new baby was born my spare time went from little to none. I had lost all hope of getting a trip in before the new year, but the wife surprised me late Saturday night by telling me that our 2 yr old was gonna spend the night at

I couldn't think of a better way to start the New Day, The New Month, The New Year and A New Decade than on the water with the first sunrise of the Decade.
The wife and I went fishing for our New Year’s Day date in our kayaks and caught 15 crappie and a little dink largejaw. All were caught on jigs casting.
Today I had a couple hours to kill and decided to try vertical jigging a

Started the day very early compared to most folks. Passed the park where we held the Slabfest at 5:30. Went to the Seminole County side just because it was open. First on the scene there and launched without incident and headed out into the

Went out to lake Jesup, to check if any signs of the spawn was happening, so decided to pick up some minnows . The morning started at a brisk 56F & my 1st hand dip into the bucket reminded me of the dis-pleasure the next couple hrs

I fished Bradford Sinks on Redstone Arsenal today from 7AM till about 1:30PM. The fish were scattered and biting soft, but I managed a limit. I spider rigged four poles with 1/16oz White Marabou jig about four feet deep in 6 feet of water.

Might be my favorite way to eat crappie. They are dang good fried but these are really incredible. Cooking them on the half shell makes grilling them so much easier. Crappie take up a good bit of smoke flavor too. I use salt and Old Bay

My good friend Gary Fomby and I decided to crappie fish this morning instead of fighting the crowd below WB dam. It proved to be a tough morning for fishing for us although we did catch a bunch of fish.
Haven’t had a chance to fish since Labor Day, so dusted the cobwebs off my favorite fishing pole and made a short afternoon trip to a local pond to enjoy this great spring weather before winter returns!
Just a short story to share. I eat lunch at a small Chinese place in Lake Mary. I’ve been known to buy a meal for a first responder occasionally, insisting that the waitress say nothing about who paid the tab. On the 23rd I tried to do this

No not the purple dinosaur if that is what you were thinking. Barney is a life long minnow dunker and has never fished any other technique for catching crappie. He showed interest in going with me today to attempt to catch his first crappie

Showed up at Eagle Cr around 1:45 and found ice for about as far as you could see. Only one patch of open water across the lake in the mouth of Shoal Cr. After half an hour of debating, we launched. Used a net to break ice all around the trailer

I am sure some deserve it , you know the ones on the old naughty list . I think I am ok as I don't recall anything naughty this year . I been friendly with my rooster and that isn't always easy you know .

Twas the day before Christmas eve and all thru Michigan,
the weather was forecasted to be very pleasant.
I was watching CDC and no new reports had I seen.
My boat and tackle are all put away for the long winter

I know, most of you would say something like” not if I don’t have to”. When my chores are caught up, mostly, and the sour weather predictions lost some of the sour, and time to fish is kinda limited anyway, I put on the suit and make good use
