    7/23 to 7/25 and a new PB

    The last week or so have been more or less all about targeting carp. I been prebaiting spots pretty generously this year, and so far my efforts have paid off. Just about every night has yielded consistant action from carp in the 10 to 13lb range. To make a long story short, I am trying to target...

    Breaking another specie barrier

    It seems like almost forever now I wanted to catch a pickeral, and today was the day I left that black cloud behind me. I have fished plenty of waters that hold these fish, but never hooked up with one. I started out early in a local lake fishing nothing but topwaters. I knew my odds of...

    New PB mirror carp

    Finally devoted a day to stalking some local carp. Landed a wide variety of things. Including 2 snapping turtles, 6 rainbow trout, 1 brown, 3 bluegills, 2 mirror carp, and 1 very small common, and even a big *** fallfish. I also managed to break my personal best weight for a mirror carp, by...

    Bonsai trees

    About 7 years ago, I visited a place called Longwood Gardens. I just happened to go on a day that they where having a bonsai tree display. Almost instantly it caught my eye, and I was hooked. I viewed trees that where 100's of years old that had been dwarfed and raised to grow in clay pots no...

    X-rap fetish

    Who has it? Last count, I owned 38 total. Not to mention how many I lost or exploded on rocks in the last year or 2. I could possibly go broke buying these lures, but I love em. I know some of you guys use them and swear by them the way I do. What colors work best for you?

    Schuylkill River 5/27/09

    Got an invite yesterday afternoon from my buddy Joe to fish for flatheads. I joined up with him around 6, grabbed some bait, and we on the river by 7:30. For the first 2 hours I watched him consistenly catch fish after fish. The biggest being around 8lbs. I decided to use a much bigger bait then...

    Schuylkill River 5/26/09

    With an all day on and off rain, I figured today would be one of the better days to get out and target some smallies with out the normal crowds. The wife left for school, and I headed off to the river. Unfortunately, I had just recently organized my tackle, and forgot to pack much needed...

    Lost reports

    Lately I been so lazy between fishing and work, I haven't really found a chance to upload some pics and post a report or 2. The last week or so been pretty slow as far as bass fishing. My local river been muddy almost a week now, and is really putting a damper on the smallmouth fishing. Last...

    In search of big Cats

    Saturday started out very unsucessful trying to target a couple of 30+lb grass carp in a local park pond. I arrived later then I wanted and by that time, kids, and geese had already filled the pond with alot of noise. By lunch, I was on my way to the river to check out several newer spots for...

    First 30 for "09"

    Last monday was my fourth trip out for cats this year, and so far I had nothing more to show for my efforts other then some runts, and bigger channels. Up until last monday, did I actually break out the tripod, set up the camera, and took a pic of a much more worthier fish. I sat in the rain...

    The 3 bass weekend

    Lately, to say the least I been in a slump. I haven't found much time to fish lately, so I have no option but to fish late afternoons into the evenings, which isn't easy when your trying to target bass. This past weekend started slow with a very short catfish session friday night with me a the...

    Round 2

    Another day off, and another day to fish. The weather was much better today, with a high somewhere in the 60's, and light winds. However, the bite was just a tad slower then yesterday. My technique today was a little different also, but I still couldn't help but to lose some more fish. I can't...

    Schuylkill River, PA 4/8/09

    Due to the awesome economy, and lack of work, I was granted one of many more days to have off. Otherwise, this time of year is heating up fishing wise, so I ain't complaning. The plan last night was to wake up early today, and hit some local bass holes, but I knew the weather was not going to be...

    First bait of 09

    The weekend was fast approaching, so I made a last minute decision friday morning to prebait a spot on the river to try some early season carp fishing. Unfortuately I wasn't expecting the skies to open up and dump alot of rain later that day. I headed out directly after work to get an early jump...

    A week or 2 of fishing

    The last week or so have been very hit or miss with some better results on the warmer days. By the time I get home, there is only about 2 hours of daylight left to fish, so nights down near the city fishing walleye, or striper are my only option. The walleye bite recently has started to shut off...

    Wonderful time of year.

    Its that time of year again. The water is warming, the fish are getting more active, and that dam ice is finally history. Since my job required me to live out of state once again, my time on the water has been very limited in the last month. So finally I made a free weekend to target every...

    Schuylkill River, PA 2/1/09

    With a forecast of lighter winds, and temps in the mid 40's, I had to get out today and wet a line. The past few days have been on the warmer side, so the river has started to finally open up again. I mean at least some of it. I couldn't fish my winter hotspots due to ice, but did get to find...

    Jigs, Jigs, and more Jigs

    I had just recently made a post of some scrappy bass jigs I had thrown together, and have since perfected my idea. After about a month or two of web surfing, I made a wallet breaking order, so I could finally perfect my madness. My order set me back a bit, but now I am well under way to making a...

    1/24/08 Susquehanna river

    With another weekend locked up with ice, I had no option but to fish a warm water discharge on the Susquehanna river again. The morning started out very slow. I spent the first 4 hours throwing an assortment of bombers, big blade baits, giant tubes, and just about every "big" lure I had, with no...
