My brother Matt and I prepared ourselves for the first ever NWT event. We fished as co-anglers at the inaugural event held at Red Wing MN. This tournament has taken the place of the old FLW as all the “top” walleye fisherman are in attendance. I knew that it was going to be a tough…
Tommie Gun is what his friends called him. I called him my friend and neighbor. This past Thursday night we lost a true fishing enthusiast. He enjoyed taking trips on Lake Michigan and taking his kids out to the local pond where he lived before he moved next door to me. We talked before I…
Featured in this pic is Fred Rackow, a great fishing friend of mine from Hampshire IL. He and other friends fished off a charter from Lakeland Charter out of Port Clinton, Ohio. Captained by Chris Clemons. They fished in water with a bottom of 27′. They used worm harnesses and either 3/8 to 3/4 ounce sinkers…
On Thursday May 20th, the Boys headed out with Les and Tim with TMA Charters out of Waukegan IL. On the trip was Tom, Mike, Dave, Chris and myself. We left around 3pm and returned around 8pm. We came up one short of a limit. We caught Coho’s, King’s and Rainbow Trout. Most of the fish…
Here is a follow up Pic from the weekend. Carl, his oldest son Colton and 14 month old Klaire enjoyed the morning bite. We were on a local farm pond, using bobbers, minnows and berkley power worms. Casey and Colton enjoyed catching fish, chasing down frogs and viewing the painted turtles. Another great day from shore. …
I want to thank my best friend Carl and his family for taking care of me during our 2nd season Iowa turkey hunt. This picture is of myself and Carl’s youngest son Casey. This decoy would have worked any other time but not this morning. We sat in the blind till sun up, waiting for…
While fishing a small pond a few weeks back, I met some great folks. This pike was taken through a tip up, and took some time to get in. Thanks again for your efforts and making sure Brady had a great time. Chris Speicher
My good friend Dave and his son Brady invited me to do some ice fishing with them a short three weeks ago. Hard to believe it’s snowing again here in Illinois. We had a heck of a good time catching many Blue Gills. I also want to thank the friends that we met on the ice, who added to the excitement when a 30+ Pike took one of their tip ups. Now all we have to do is wait till next year.
Kenosha Harbor is a great place to go for the big four-year old King Salmon! What a hoot fishing in the harbor with shore anglers casting out to catch ’em and Dad trying to keep the Lund far enough away so we wouldn’t get caught up in any of the shore angler lines. Can’t say he…
