This was my best day on the year so far, even after getting a late start. I went back to bed at 5 when I went to load up the kayak and the wind was already blowing hard, figured I'd forget it. Finally...

Wow, this is the weediest lake I've ever seen. I fished it a couple of times earlier in the season and caught some dinks, but today I couldn't even get within a 1/4 mile of the spots I'd fished before...

Finally got a decent bass into the kayak today, 3lb 6oz. Caught one dink and another pounder to go with the one pictured. This is a neat lake, some parts shallow but some steep drop-offs. I read some ...

Yeah I know, bluegill again. What's wrong with this guy? It was another kayak outing with the four year old. This time much closer to home and a lot more fishing success than our Silver Lake trip. He ...

My wife wanted to get out and fish with me, so I took her to a spot I've been eyeballing for a year or so on the upper part of Long Lake. Tackle wise we were geared toward trout, but we ended up with ...
