try to 'match the hatch,' which means, replicating what the trout are hitting on any given day. This is not cut and dry, because sometimes there are no hatches. So, I try fishing with what worked in the past. Sometimes this doesn't work either. In which case, I don't continually catch trout. I vary my fly-tying from commercial patterns, by using a different color feather or thread. Keeping a list of all the items that I need to take fishing, is crucial to me. That way, there is no…

My grandpa loves to fish. He passed this down the family including to myself. So we tend fishing a lot. Some of my earliest memories are times when the family would go fishing. Tutu, which is what we call him instead of grandpa, is always trying to get the family to fish more and more. So none of us were really surprised when he developed a new hobby: bow fishing. Bow fishing is a good mix of hunting and fishing. One uses a bow and arrow with a string attached to the arrow to shoot fish. where…

CHECK TIPUPS OFTEN TO TRIGGER MORE STRIKES There's no doubt that ice anglers are some of the most dedicated of all outdoorsmen. Sitting patiently out on a cold frozen lake in search of a few fish is dedication. No argument there. However, in many cases these anglers do too much sitting and not enough moving around. A lot more gamefish can be taken on tipups by simply checking them more often. Yet the majority of ice anglers make the critical mistake of setting their tipups at the beginning…

I am reading, “The Bass, the river and Sheila Mant” by W.D. Watherell. The story is about a boy who takes his summer crush on a date, but is faced with the struggle of choosing Sheila or the biggest bass he has ever hooked. In this journal I will be questioning and evaluating. While reading this short story I am left to question will the Narrator pick the bass or Shelia Mant. I believe he will pick the bass. One reason I believe this is because the amount of time he spends fishing. In…

Our Favorite Fishing Cooler We are a family that spends a lot of time in the great outdoors. We love taking our boat out for the weekend and during the summer, we spend even more time out on the open water. For us, there is nothing better than the thrill of catching the big one, even when we do end up with just as many fish tales about the ones we almost caught. However, our fishing trips out would not be worth much if we didn’t have a good cooler along on the trip with us. That is why when we…

My family and I started out the weekend by going fishing. We fished many hours and we hooked into some nice crappies. Our family’s seasonal camper on Lake Shamineau is where we spent most of our time fishing. Routinely spotted were large northern pike and muskies all while looking for schools of crappies and walleyes. Quietly trolling for walleyes, I happened to snag a small fishing rod. By the looks of it, that rod had been at the bottom of the lake for years. Our keep of walleyes was held to…

Ice Fishing It was a very cold day. We were out on the ice fishing. My dad and I were in a fishing tournament. All day we kept getting a whole bunch of little fish and no big ones. We were on Grand lake. There was a lot of people fishing but no one was getting any fish incept littel fish that were illegal. It was five hours into fishing. I started to get a bite. But the bites were to small to to hook the fish. So the fish kept nibbling on it but that was it. Finally half hour after it…
