I was looking for new people to follow on Twitter today when I found @ladysportsman. She works for the communications department of the Sportsman Channel. After following her, I got a message that she was coming into town this weekend for the Sportsman Channel’s Hunt.Fish.Feed. event.
Hunt.Fish.Feed.SM is a really cool initiative to encourage [...]
Richard Levesque scored a new Vermont state record walleye when he caught a 14 ½ lb walleye through ice! He landed it on February 10th on Lake Champlain using a tip-up and golden shiner. Can you imagine pulling out that monster out of a 6″ diameter hole?
The picture above doesn’t look much like [...]
As a rookie ice fisherman, I’ve been deferring to my more experienced friends to know when to walk on the ice, use a four-wheeler on the ice, or drive on the ice. If I were to ever go out alone, I would make sure I see a lot of people doing something on the [...]
The open water fishing article I posted earlier this week reminded me of a segment I saw on Minnesota Bound last weekend. The host, Ron Schara, introduced a story about Nelson Lake in North Dakota.
The lake is used by Minnkota Power to cool its turbines. The water is then returned to the lake [...]
I’m a little late with this news because I haven’t been trolling forums as much in recent months.
Back in late October, a couple of muskie hunter old-timers caught a monster muskie that may be the new Minnesota record.
Just like Kyle Anderson from Michigan, the pair was more interested in releasing the lunker in good [...]
If you’re even remotely into bass fishing, you know that Manabu Kurita of Japan caught a largemouth bass in July that was widely believed to be a new world record.
The results were made official late last week and he was given a tie with the world record set 77 years ago. Field and Stream [...]
Fellow anglers in the blogosphere have been commenting today and yesterday about the decision by BASS to eliminate the WBT. I completely agree with BassFishingDem in his feelings on the matter.
I’m not a big fan of pro fishing tournaments because of the stress and pressure it puts on the fish in a lake. [...]
I felt my blog was gaining enough steam that it deserved a domain of its very own. So I registered for one and moved my wordpress installation this week.
As a result, if you’re subscribed to my blog through Google reader, you may have noticed a redistribution of some old posts. Please be assured [...]
I was just recently turned on to kayak angling as a subculture, due to my interest in the Hobie Mirage Pro Angler. While there are pro fishing competitions where all the competitors are in kayaks, how well do you think they would do in a competition against 250 HP bass boats? Three buddies [...]
Kyle Anderson of Rapid City, MI caught a 55 inch, 50 lb 8 oz muskie on September 27, 2009 on Torch Lake in Michigan. It looks to be a new state record.
Photo, left, was taken by David Rose of Field and Stream magazine.
It’s great to see a dedicated fisherman like Mr. Anderson get rewarded [...]
