This past weekend I had the opportunity to spend some quality father/daughter time with my daughter that just became a teenager. Yes, I do feel old now. Anyway, we went out Saturday morning for some time on the water chasing crappie and bass. The lake we were on is close … Continue reading

Mitchell Product Review
While flipping through the outdoor channels on television one Saturday morning (because rain had screwed up my fishing plans and you really didn’t expect me to do anything productive around the house did you?)

Downsizing for Bass
I like big baits and I cannot lie (those of you who are children on the late 80′s, early 90′s get that musical reference, the rest of you think I’m an idiot). Big baits catch big fish, that’s a fact. I keep the below bait in my tackle bag for … Continue reading

Homemade surf weights
There are few things I like to do more than hang out on the beach and surf fish, but I live a long way from the gulf so I don’t get to do it very often. As you might expect, the main fish chased up in north East Texas where … Continue reading
What I am Using Right Now
This past week I got a text from a friend asking what the bass were hitting right now. After I said a few bad words, since he was fishing and I was at work, I sent him a note with a few baits I thought would work but this brought … Continue reading
