Vlog #1 – A New Pond
I finally got lines wet for 2022! (Spoiler alert: no fish). But it was good to knock the cobwebs off. I also ramble on for a while about what’s going through my head going into this year.
Off Season Maintenance
The forecast has the temps dipping into the single digits this weekend. I wanted to make sure that I had fuel stabilizer run through the motor and the lower unit oil changed before that hit!
One Lure at the Spillway
I always have this little telescoping rod in my truck. I almost always have a small hip pack with a little bit of tackle. Well, I had used the hip pack for something else and the one crappie jig tied on was all I had! I’m glad I stopped! Usually this place is pretty packed….
Fall Slow Down
It’s cold. I don’t have any tournaments scheduled. And I’m totally OK with that for right now! I’ve been switching it up and just fishing for fun. Sometimes I just take an ultralight and go for panfish. I’ve even just tossed a Carolina rig with a hot dog on it to try to catch some…
Pre-Storm Fishing
We’re 2/3 of the way through the month and I’m not where I want to be. Because of that, any free time I get I’m trying to get on the water! Last night, my regular Monday night activities were cancelled due to the weather and I decided to chance it to get a couples hours…
Rough Day on the Water
Some days things just don’t work. In this video, I land one fish, that’s too small. Get tangled in a tree, my bungee, my net … and then I lose a fish (off camera of course) that would have actually made a difference. Enjoy my fails!
Night Fishing From the Kayak
I didn’t look at the weather as I headed to the lake, but I did pay attention to the time. I knew I would be out after dark and prepared (or so I thought) by making sure that I had my light pole with me. I launched the kayak, started paddling and realized that the…
DaBomb + Anchor Wizard + LiteTackle
For long days on the water, I really like having an anchor on my kayak. The obvious use is to hold in a spot to get casts into the right area. I find it just as useful when doing other things in the boat: handling a fish, tying on a new lure, reaching into the…
MoYak September 2021 Online – Week 1
It’s a week into the September Online 2021 (tourneyx.com) tournament. I’ve been getting out on the water as often as I can! To the point that I am even keeping my kayak on the cart ready to go! If I have a couple free hours, I’m going for some bass! I’m currently sitting in 4th…
