Southern bluegills!
(Preview)
Made a quick road trip this weekend to see my good buddy Capt. Jay Nieman. The 7 hr. drive is never fun, but the fishing is always great. It's nice to have a friend that lives on a private lake full of bluegills and crappies that hardly ever gets fished. Sometimes you get em' and sometimes you don't. H...

Theresa's Whitefish...
(Preview)
My wife Theresa and I snuck out for the evening bite. I got skunked while watching her catch 4 undersize walleye and a really nice 21 inch Whitefish. That darn Whitefish left a vapor trail on the graph when it came up to grab her #7 Green Glow Tiger 5 feet off bottom. Since Whitefish are her favorite fis...

A little slower on the whitefish bite today, but it was still fun just to be out fishing. Two smaller whitefish and one HUGE burbot. I had five other fish on but didn't land them. Tomorrow is another day. tomjohn

Should be eating fresh walleye tonight!
(Preview)
Things have been so busy lately, that I've only been able to get out on the ice one night a week, (better than not getting out at all, I guess.) Got out of the shop around 4:30, and was fishing before 5 off the Gladstone harbor. Several people have mentioned to me that they've been doing good on anything pur...

Windy as he$$ here in BBDN
(Preview)
The wind has the snow drifting pretty good over here in BBDN. I was fishing out in Kates bay this morning and It was pretty nice. But the wind started to come up fast and gusty. I fished perch till I was sure I was going to blow away in my clam. When I got up to go my clam slid about 4 ft. I had to hold on really tight...
