Hey Tin Boaters, I haven't been around much since I went to the dark side(glass boat). I saw this on bbc and thought that you guys need to see it. https://www.bbcboards.net/zerothread?id=557694 scroll down and look at that tin boat!

So I'm considering an old Tracker, like '80-'81 old. I know the hull design is pretty wack compared to modern boats but how's fishability of them? They go around the same as a 14' jon only with the ability to fish bigger(slightly) water, that's appealing to me. Should I just hold out and get...

So, Saturday was a long day of waiting for weather to clear up in anticipation of fishing. A friend and I headed beyond the cheddar curtain to do some kayak fishing with one of our friends who lives outside of Milwaukee. The plan was to launch at a lake and maybe fish it or maybe fish down the...

I haven't been fishing a whole lot this year so when my neighbor asked if I wanted to hit the lagoons(Skokie Lagoons..local spot) for a couple hours on a canoe I said oh yeah! I travelled light and took a baitcaster and a spinning rig, he was chucking poppers on a 6-weight. We round the first...

so I went to swap my favorite Quantum spinning reel on to my 2-piece trunk rod this morning and set it on a table. It dropped on the garage floor and snapped the bail off(the rotor arm broke). DOH!!!! Now I gotta take it to Eric at Coren's and see how much, man I really like that reel too. I...

So I had written a report earlier and went to grab the mouse and hit the back shortcut button and lost it all so this is short: Woke up early(5:00AM) on Sunday to get the yak out, my first time out with it all year. The water was super high but I managed a 15"er (largemouth) that was blitzing...

I've made several post work 15 minute stops to no avail, the weather hasn't been the most cooperative either. Since I'm not fishing tournaments this year I figured I'm due for some travelling fishing time so I ventured above the cheddar curtain for trout in the Driftless region of Wisconsin. I...

I misplaced my Pentax Optio last fall and couldn't figure out where I put it. I found it this morning in a bag that I use occassionally for quick fishing....WOO HOO! I just gotta charge it up and make sure it works after sitting in the garage through the whole winter(sub zero).

do you use them? I've heard good things.

So I headed out in the cold to cast a bit for some big fish on the big lake, no takers, no hits even. I took a crankbait set up, G.Loomis CR844-blend with a Revo STX. I don't use this rig alot since I don't do much cranking but I thought maybe some Coho would take a X-Rap or a Pointer. I...

So I geared up for some salmon and lake run browns since they become accessible in the harbors of Lake Michigan in the fall. I've only targetted them in tributaries but that's an all day event. I've heard that they can be had nearby so I thought I'd give it a go this morning. The first fish...

quick report. I grabbed my 2-piece Cabelas Gold Label casting rod($25) and bait tossed in a backpack and rode my bicycle down to Lake Michigan, it's about a 20 minute ride from me. I caught a small largemouth and then the spot I really wanted to be fishing became vacant, so I filled it. I had...

I wade fished today, my first time out this year. I think I only wade fished once last year. My plan was to get up fairly early and get home midday, it's an hour each way from my house...hence the infrequency. I set out for some river smallies armed with 3rd hand rod holster so I could take a...

This one is fun https://funstufftosee.com/frogleaptest.html

Rule.... that is all :D

Who's around there? I'm going to be in the Glenmoore area and eventually Philadelphia. I think I'm going to just bring a 4-weight fly rig for ease of travel and fish the pond at my uncles. Any other ideas?

this is great! https://www.robmathiowetz.com/

My plan was to use my PC baits Flatsider and chuggers, well I never got any hits on the chugger and so once the sun got high I tried the crank but the lake was too shallow and weedy so those will have to wait for another outing. I got out with some dudes in my club for a non-sanctioned buddy...

you still around? Been fishing? I'm going to make a concerted effort to fish some PC baits on Saturday, the poppers and cranks are awesome but I haven't had much chance to use them.
