This is a follow up to Weekend Fishing Recap – March 6th, 2021 – Justin Penney Sawyer and I fished quite a bit early last year, but school diminished that a bit. After COVID and Winter, it’s been tough to get him away from screens. I finally just made him go with me. We took…

Weekend Fishing Recap – March 6th, 2021
I’m still new to fishing overall and very new to kayak fishing. That said, I tend to jump fully in to anything that I do. This year, I’m committed myself to fishing in two tournaments in the Mo-Yak Fishing Series. I preparing for that I’ve upgraded my boat, started learning the electronics, and most importantly,…
Bird’s Nest
I spent some time practicing skipping jigs. This was inevitable. This was also far from the worst. I did get better at skipping so the pain of getting skunked was diminished a little.
$1 Buzz Bait?!
I’m always looking to save money. These buzz baits from Wal-mart suck as they come off the shelf, but a little modification makes them work as expected.
First Mystery Tackle Box
Yesterday I got a great surprise with the Mondo Kit. Then, today, my first Mystery Tackle Box showed up! This video is a quick walkthrough of what was included in the Bass Pro kit. There are a couple of welcome surprises in here. Definitely lures that I wouldn’t have tried normally.
More Lures!

These two have been really good to me so I bought some more for backup.
First Paddle at Lake Remembrance
There was a nice break in the weather here yesterday which gave me an opportunity to test out this new kayak. I took it to Lake Remembrance since I’m pretty familiar with that water. I had just a few things that I wanted to do: make sure it floats, test how it paddles, and setup…
Fish Finder Update
This new kayak came with its own new toy: a fish finder! I’m really excited to use this so I can get a better feel for what I’m fishing in. I spent some time on this rainy day updating the software and downloading some of the Social Maps from C-Maps. I’m hoping this helps me…
New Kayak
I’ve really enjoyed kayak fishing, but I haven’t really liked the kayak I have. I got a great deal on it, but it’s not really a good kayak. (An Ascend FS10T, for anyone interested.) Yesterday, I was helping a friend look for bass boats on Facebook Marketplace and dropped in “kayak” just to see what…
