It's been a little while since I posted, but I've been up to a little something something: I got married! As soon as I got back to Alaska, it was a rush of last minute wedding preparations, and then Julia and I finally tied the knot on September 8th. Let me tell, you the wedding was an absolute blast. ...
This was my 8th season heading up to Togiak River Fishing Adventures to guide for part of the summer. The fishing there was phenomenal as always: a 36 inch rainbow, sight fishing countless silver salmon on flies, the grand slam of all 5 species of salmon, nymphing for dollies, etc. But that is not the reason I go to...
With so many fish locally around the sandbar and avon lake, it has been hard not to stay local and keep fishing those fish, even be that they are smaller fish. However, I had a birthday gift charter with some of the neighborhood kids the other day, and we decided to take the trip out to Astubula in search...
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 always tell people that your 2 most valuable fishing tools are your phone and computer. With today's technology and electronic information sharing, online research provides invaluable information that help predict very accurate weather and fish locations.
Instead of having a bunch of book marks to click through, I decided to create this page that gives a rundown of all...
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...
The new Starcraft STX 206 Viper with the Team Pro Staff Wrap. They really did a great job on the graphics with this one. The Viper is Starcraft's fiberglass version of their big water multi-species boats. I currently run the STX 2050 aluminum version, and its going to be a really tough decision come next winter when I have...
Two weekends ago, Paul and I fished our last MWC qualifier of the year on Winnebago and pulled off a 53th place out of 135 teams, which should be good enough to get us in the championship next year. The tournament didn't come with out some drama though...
I was not able to fish day 2 of the tournament as...
The LEWT Championship of the weekend was a complete burn as we caught 80+ walleyes throughout the 2 day tournament. What fun fishing! I was really encouraged about the future of our fishery as we caught a ton of 16-20" fish. I haven't seen alot of that recently and it makes the future look bright! We did catch some...
Things are starting to heat up in the competition department with 2 BIG events coming up...
Paul and I just collected a plaque and some $$$ for the 12.7lb walleye that won us the Spring Walleye Derby. A very nice bonus that helps us pay for some of these upcoming events.
Last weekend, in what has become a tradition now, my...
