The dog days of summer have hit, and they've brought great fishing...
The thing that has been so great about this year is the shoreline shallow water bite. For the past 2 months, the 15-35' between Huron and Cleveland has been as consistent as it gets, with personal favorite spots being Avon Point, the Lakewood Gold Coast, and Cranberry Creek. ...
Sun wasn't shining, but the walleye didn't care on Lake Erie:

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- A Lake Erie fishing trip with Ryan Buddie of Lakewood didn't go as planned. Big walleye got in the way.
The general idea on Tuesday morning was to pick up nightcrawlers at Erie Outfitters in...
I got the opportunity to take my Dad on a fishing trip to Lake Ontario this week... It’s been awhile both since just him and I have just gotten away on our own and that I’ve gone up to
Lake O to target these silvery freight trains. I guess walleyes and having kids of my own, although both great things,...
What a tournament, actually 2 tournaments! Jason Kopf and I were able to put together a nice bag of 31lbs 12oz yesterday for a 2 day total of 65lbs and hang onto 3rd place in the Masters Walleye Circuit and combined Lake Erie Walleye Trail. We just couldn’t get...

What a week we had on the Mississippi in Prairie Du Chein, Wisconsin at the World Walleye Championships. It came down to a slug fest of 4 boats fishing side by side at the top of the Pool #10 dam. We were all pitching one-eye spoons and 1/4 or 3/8 oz Berkley Gumball jigs tipped with twister tails and...
One thing that is great about my job is that get to show people a day that they will remember for a long time. Looking back, I can think of several fishing trips as a kid that I remember like they were yesterday: Lake Lanier crappie fishing when I was 8, my first Rocky River steelhead at age 10,...
Tis the season for turkey dinners, high school playoff football, Chrismas carols, and night walleye fishing along the shores of Lake Erie. I've been out twice in the last few days, and both times we've been able to raise ole' marble eyes from the dark Erie waters.
Last night Julia, Becky, and I launched off of Vermillion around 10pm. We...
