THANK YOU!
(Preview)
A big "Thank You" to all the wonderful folks I had the chance to share the boat with in 2011. Your business is very much appreciated. In addition to fishing with many long-time friends, I was able to make some new ones as well. It's time to put the Warrior down for her long winter's nap....

Smallies have been snapping.
(Preview)
Been doing well on smallmouth lately. Over the last week, I've boated 30 fish Lindy rigging suckers, along the west bank between Escanaba and Gladstone. My best day I caught 12 and lost 5 or 6 more. I was on pace with that trip today, before the wind and rain got to be too bad, (got 8 and lost 3 today.) Always...

Perch limit??? Not quite.
(Preview)
I was BBDN perch fishing again today but quite didn't limit out. I did manage to get 45 nice perch though. Looks like some good years ahead for all the smaller perch around. -- Edited by Tomjohn on Monday 31st of October 2011 08:24:23 PM

Here is a limit of beautifull BBDN perch. The bite was GREAT today. And the day was GREAT also. Almost dead calm all day. Started fishing at 9:00 and was limited out by 1:00. It just doesn't get any better than that. Tomjohn

My brother Kenneth had a five hour trip yesterday evening and found a tough bite. I think he and his client ended up with 4 walleye and a nice pike. The biggest walleye though, was one fat fish! Everything came on crankbaits. Unfortunately, al...

Bays de Noc Fishing Info
(Preview)
Hi Folks, I am planning a trip to Little Bay de Noc for a few days of fishing the end of this month. I've read the Michigan fishing regulations and noticed that a person can possess 3 limits of fish. Three limits is legal, but what is acceptable to you folks who live and fish there? Also, at what size do you...

Personally, I thought Brian and Ed were fricken crazy to go out fishing in the conditions we have today. I guess I'm just getting old! That said, they just came back with 45 really nice perch. They all came on 2 inch minnows below slip bobbers. I take that back, they had a few bigger minnows mixed in wit...

Fished anywhere from 10-25' of water, caught one here, one there, one double, but mostly just covering wate...

October 8th Report

Looks like the south winds finally got a few walleye to start biting inside the bay. Ever since that windstorm a few days ago, it's been slim pickens for walleye. I haven't spoke to anyone that's been fishing at night, but I have seen a few boats out after dark. Anyway, Kenneth was out with longtime clie...

Spent yesterday with my daughter Noel, and boy did we have a great day. We started out by fishing for perch at one of our "shore" spots and we caught enough nice ones for a good meal. Biggest perch was around 12 inches, it came on a minnow, but most of them were caught with leafworms. Then we w...

Water temps in the bay have dropped into the mid 50's after this last big blow - time to start chasing smallies on the breaklines! Made my first trip this afternoon, and finally broke the 20 inch mark this season, (crossed paths with several since the opener, but they all managed to get off.) Worked the w...

After getting home from helping at the walleye tournament weigh-in, I decided to make a quick fishing trip down to the Escanaba harbor and try for some pike. I asked Diane if she wanted to come along, and she said yes. I set her up with a large white and chartreuse spinnerbait and told her to hold on to the r...
