Southern waters...
Many times I've fished virgin waters with friends or my oldest son way out into the bush on our properties in N FL. The fishing is outstanding without an unnatural sound to be heard except for an...

Toss up...
For me it's a close tie between Lac Seul and Minnitaki. Every year we seem to have fantastic days on both. This year our fishing was so good on 'Taki that we never ventured up to Seul during our...

One of the best!
Got home Sunday from the yearly ten day trip to Sioux Lookout. Had one of, if not THE best years yet! Temps were great, water was high, and the fish were very cooperative everywhere we fished. We...

Both are good for big pike.
After 18 consecutive years of fishing both lakes during the same 10 day span in late June through early July I'd have to say both lakes produce big pike. For targeting the bigger fish we've found...

What a coincidence!
My 13 YO caught his first citation Pike during this year's trip, too. Also on 8 lb. test using a light action buggy whip rod for walleye fishing. A 3/8 oz. jig head/curly tail was the only leader...

Two 6 volt lantern batteries or 8 D batteries will give you 12 volts and amperage to run a depth finder. GPS, color screen, high return sonar speeds, etc. will shorten the battery life, but with a...

Fished 6/28 - 7/7 and found the water temps warmest I've seen in 17 years. The early Spring and lower snow amounts have allowed the lake to warm fast. Look deep on points and humps 15'-30'+ for...
