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,...
I had the great opportunity to go down to Jackson Memorial Middle School to speak for their "Hooked on Fishing, not on Drugs" program. It was awesome to hang out with these kids that stay after school on their own time to talk fishing and plan their next trip.

With as big of a Lake as we have here, its rare that one spot remains hot for longer than a few weeks each year. And that is a lot of the reason I always tell people how much of an advantage you have with a trailer-able boat, so you can travel easier to the hottest bite. Well, here...
Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, all traditional organized walleye tournaments, such as the LEWT, MWC, and NWT, in the near future have been canceled. On April 4th, Jason Fischer, tournament director of the LEWT, organized a ‘social distancing’ tournament among a group of elite walleye fisherman in the Lake Erie community. The tournament was done in a...
Well, its march 26th, and we still have big snow storms rolling across the country into Northeast Ohio. This time last year, I had already had a half dozen days out on Erie; I still haven't had a chance to get out on the big pond yet. The MWC kicked off last weekend, and the boys were dealing with...
It looks the cold temps and the snow are going to keep me off the water for the next few days, so that will give me some much needed time to start gearing up for the rapidly approaching tournament season. The boat is ordered and I was ecstatic to receive the news this week that am going to be...
The cool thing about a GoPro Camera, is you can just set it and forget, and not worry about ruining it in the elements of the Great Lakes. I've always wanted to document and make a video of what its like to be on one of our boats during a successful, big time tournament. Here it is...

The 2019 Lake Erie Walleye Trail season has come and gone… It was tough, I knew it could be, the big fish on Erie are as hard as I’ve ever seen in my tournament career to target specifically, at least in my eyes. Congrats to the guys who dialed them in! Dan and I ended up with a mediocre,...
Kevin and I fished the Lake Erie Walleye Trail out of Marblehead this weekend. With cold temps and major winds the week prior it was a tough bite. For Prefish on Friday we started off in the Kelley's area pulling cranks and spinners. We found great marks but had no takers. With some of our other teammates working the...
