After 2 years of work putting together this DVD, nice to see others are finding joy in smallmouth bass as much as I do.  If your new to this site you can find more information about the DVD at our products page.

Spent the day with Erik Rambo working on different angles for upcoming projects, thought I would share this picture of the day when we had a couple minutes  to make a few casts. Look what we found.  First lake-run brown of the season.

Picture of the Day – Cast at Twilight

/1 Comment/in /by

There are a handful of fishy activities that I enjoy trying to caputre with the lens of a camera.  One of them is the art of the fly cast.  With the sun only above the banks of the river, and shining only on the face and rod of the angler.  The fly line is highlighted in full display as the angler makes one more cast before it’s time to head in.

I often get asked why I like to fly fish.  It’s the cast.  Plan and simple.

Holy Cow I can’t believe I got that on film

Late Sept and early Oct is prime time for Muskie

/1 Comment/in , /by

After last years trip, had to sneak out between salmon/steelhead trips and find a couple more Musky to play with this past week.  They are the biggest baddest predator that we have here in the Midwest.  They are a special fish and I love the chase.  With possible new laws and the MDNR working hard to find new waters to plant Musky in, the future looks bright.

Picture of the Day – First King of the Year

Ed McCoy finding one that would eat a streamerIt’s a challenge that I have always enjoyed since the first time I tried it 8 or 9 years ago, throwing streamers for Kings.  With this years temps, the challenge has stepped up a notch.  Usually first King of the year for me (and my boat) is hooked and landed in Aug, so this year we are a step or two behind my usual pace.  But Ed McCoy got us on the board, and look for the next wave of fish to bring us back to our normal pace.
