I love fishing new water. I make a point to fish new areas as often as possible. Fishing the same worn-out spots becomes monotonous to me; that’s why I rarely fish an area more than a few times a year. Ever since I bought my first kayak I’ve had this incessant thirst to find new water. It brings a smile […]

SWC Christmas Party at BarFly

The party was a success. Collecting plenty of toys for children in need. It was a great positive atmosphere that involved a lot of […]
Red Friday
“Should have been here yesterday.” Words you never want to hear utter from someone’s mouth when you travel a long way in hopes of catching a hot bite.

Finding fish
Finding fish has been tough with the low tides and winds of the last week. Finding big fish has been almost impossible for me. That may be because I suck at fishing. That is all.

I spent a few days east of the border last weekend. The food was good. The company was great. The fishing was incredible. The first day started off a little slow. We had trouble finding clean water. The grey skies weren’t doing us any favors either. I caught one low 30” fish early but that was it.
Deep G lades
Spur of the moment, I drove up to the mainland to fish with my buddies Jeff and Wes the other morning. The alarm went off at 3:30 am and I headed north. Nothing like 7 hours of driving for a day trip…. After about 4 hours of driving, I finally got to the ramp. I met up with the boys […]
Here and There

Seems whatever craft you are on you are bound to have a great time, unless you find your self with a messed up […]

Every now and then she’ll smile down and grant us passage on a picturesque day. On rare occasions she’ll string two or more blissful days together for us to enjoy her splendor. Two weeks ago […]
