- I started keeping a fishing calendar this past year. My thinking was that I would somehow get to fish more. I was applying the business proverb of "that which gets measured gets done".

- "FISH ON!!"I yelled, as my seven weight fly rod bent over and the line played it's magical tune of "zinging in the rain". It was hard to tell just how big the fish was or if it was a Rainbow or big Dolly Varden.Hooking a big upper Kenai river trout in fast water doesn't leave much time for species identification."Hang on to it-we'll chase it and go land it in some calmer water...

- 2007-11-13 22:16:19 - Bass fishing - recreation or obsession?
- First of all, we need to look at the word ... recreation. When I break it down, it comes out re-creation.

- Having been an avid basser for years, and not having the wherewithal to purchase a boat, I've often felt cheated and frustrated about not being able to get out to deeper waters (where I was certain the real bass were). Having succumbed to this delimma for some 40 years or more, I finally had something come my way that I never knew existed: my local bass fishing club. I mean, I knew bass c...

From here on out the weather will never get quite as hot as it did ...

- 2007-11-13 22:16:19 - Local bass fishing
- If you are like me, you love to fish at the drop of a hat. While I do plan fishing trips, I also like to go on a whim.Sometimes the urge strikes out of nowhere and I get up and go right now.

- 2007-11-13 22:16:19 - Fishing the points

This will depend on the lake, the time of year, the time of day and many other factors such as air and water temperature. There is no short answer; no hard and fast rule. But mostly, to put yourself on fish, you are going to be looking for cover and structure. ...

- Class Is In Session.... Baitfish 101Okay.So you would think that in this information age we fishermen and fisherwomen would have all the knowledge of baitfishing at our fingertips.Evidently, some of us have been slow to enter this information age, so as a public service I am going to pass along some rather "common sense" information that apparently isn't being absorbed by the ...

- Meanwhile back at the Yurt...Having been humbled by "Hank's" famous trout, it was time for a little change of scenery.My little girl, and kids in general, don't seem to understand catch and release.

- Did you ever plan that fishing trip to the big lake, then when you got there you realized you had no idea where to start fishing? Too much ground to cover, right? Let's break it down a bit to simplify it.The first thing you want to look for is cover; something that 'looks' like a good place for a bass to hide. Depending on the time of day, they will probably be there.Quite often, you...

- This aint exactly rocket scientry boys...I picked up a copy of The Oregonian this morning and read a story about how the ocean conditions this year are killing off seabirds in record numbers. Murres and cormorants are washing up on shore like pieces of Northwestern forest driftwood, mainly due to starvation.Most biologists are blaming a lack of cooling ocean winds which are causing w...

- It is easy to get intimidated by world class rivers.I guess the Henry's Fork was a little intimidating to me.With the old rule of thumb being that "eighty percent of the fish are caught by twenty percent of the fishermen", I was pretty much convinced that at least for this trip I might fall into the "eighty percent" of fishless fellas category.Nonetheless-- being the supreme o...
