Went out yesterday morning and just killed 'em with a SPRO Frog yesterday. I would just pitch the frog about twelve inches into the bullrushes and then ease them out past the edge. I am sure I hauled in around 20 fish in the 3 hours I was on the water. This 17" beauty was worthy of a pic: I...

It's been a few years since I have been 'round these parts of the internet... Life got hectic for awhile there with 2 kids and I didn't do a whole lot of fishing or work on my tin can. But now my oldest is 3 years old, and he begs me ALL THE TIME to take him fishing. So it's time to start up...

Anyone else playing this on Xbox Live??? I LOVE it. It is a Petrol-Head's dream come true. I had and played Gran Turismo 5 on the PS3, and this game crushes it. Would be cool to get some more people in our car club for some racing, drag racing or just some drift challenges. If you have an...

Just thought I would share: https://www.americanlegacyfishing.com/shimano-curado-cu50e-casting-fishing-reel.html Not a bad price. This isn't the same model as the one I have, but I love mine and have to imagine these would be as well. If I had the cash, I would snap up a couple more at that...

My little 1 year old, thanks to my wife, got me a sweet new Shimano Curado reel on a 7'6" St Croix Mojo Bass rod as well as a nice Quantum Accurist spinning rod and reel for fathers day. Tried it out yesterday and I love it! Those mojo rods are kind of heavy though... Pretty surprised after...

Picked this guy up flipping on a little lake outside of Cambridge last weekend: 18.5" and tons of fight! Was a blast to haul in, and a great first Bass of the year. I was certain I would have the biggest fish of the day... Until my buddy hauled this one in: 21.5" and coming in at roughly...

There has to be a few people here by now that are rocking a smartphone with the Android OS. As you can probably tell from some of my other posts, in addition to fishing, I tend to be an obsessive tinkerer of all things electronic, and it seems like I learn something cool everytime I talk to...

I was looking for pictures of Northern Pike for another thread in the baits section and came across this and thought I would share: https://forums.speedguide.net/showthread.php?p=2106636 WOW. I have had some big pike come after other fish I have had on the line, but this guy's story takes the...

On my way home from work last night I saw a few roosters on the side of the road picking up gravel and noticed the corn is changing colors, and that can only mean one thing: Pheasant Season is just around the corner! This year we are heading back out to South Dakota to the same place we went...

My buddy and I hit up a little-known, tiny little lake on Saturday near our home town, and what a great day! Despite the heat, and despite the fact that we didn't get in there for the early morning bite, the bass in this lake were about as active as I have seen anywhere all year. All of the...

I pulled a Bill Dance yesterday out on the lake and broke the tip off of my Vendetta at the first eye... :cry: I would be way more upset about it, but it happened while pulling in my personal best of the year so the sting was not SO bad (she made one last run alongside the boat and pulled the...

Took my little brother out to Chisago Lake yesterday for some killer bass fishing. While I didn't catch much (one decent sized fish and about 4 or 5 little fella's), I did put us in some good spots where my brother hauled in some really nice fish. This one in particular is the nicest fish I have...

I am finally getting consistent with this lake. I quit smoking recently (in the middle of day 4 as I type this...) so I have been going out on the lake as much as possible since I don't even think about smoking if my hands are busy with fishing (and it works great!) Anyway, in the last few...

I had it. I had the largest bass I have ever seen on Saturday morning out on Cross Lake... Was out frogging with my pops and caught quite a few decent fish, but this one... It really was the biggest bass I have ever seen in person. Got it up alongside the boat and had it all tired out. My heart...

Well, after being completely and utterly impressed with the many many fantastic mods here, I finally managed to pick my jaw up off the floor long enough to begin the planning phases of doing one of these myself. I have no idea how it will turn out, and I am almost certain it won't look nearly as...

Please excuse the long-windedness of this post, but when I am not thinking about fishing, I am thinking about Pheasant hunting. I am actually the guy that HATES it when deer season comes around because that means I can no longer safely go out with my two dogs to hunt Pheasants on public land...

I just picked up the Abu Garcia Vendetta rod this afternoon for my baitcaster reel and holy smokes! Just casting in the back yard I can see a huge difference in distance. I grabbed the 7' MH rod. I LOVE IT. Hopefully I still feel that way when I get it out on the water! Anyone else here have...

This may be old news to most of you here, but I recently stumbled upon this, which is kind of a cool webcam that shows bass all day long: https://sports.espn.go.com/outdoors/bassmaster/fishingtips/news/story?page=LunkerCam Which then led me to check out this guy by the name of Glen Lau, who...

A buddy and I headed out to Chisago Lake yesterday morning for a guilt-free morning of fishing (it's Fathers Day so this is the one day of the year I can go fishing without any chance of catching flak!) Anyway, neither of us had ever fished this lake, but we learned that the DNR is grooming...

Went out this evening with my little brother and caught quite a few nice ones. Here is one of the nicer ones: She was about 18.5 inches (didn't have a scale but I would guess a 3.5 or 4 pounder). Caught on a frog, as were all the others. I had a MONSTER on too, but it dragged me into the...
