Just as a heads up..... i have received all the donations and we are good to go for the year! I will kick around the idea of making some more clothing again. If i do, it will have to be a pretty simple sale i think. I will keep everyone updated. Thank again for all the support! Now lets see...

I did a lot of that same social distancing through last summer. I had quite a bit of time off and will be missing that this summer. we have both white perch and white bass in Lake Erie and i can hardly tell the difference. Awesome colors on the pickerel.

We had a good cold streak that added a nice 8" to 10" of ice on my local lakes. Been doing good with panfish and will put some fish pics up on the bragging board here soon. Unfortunately, we are on a warm spell and bringing the ice season to an end pretty soon. A panfish ice tournament popped...

That puts it over the top! Hawnjigs, you only needed to add $25 to reach the goal. This will cover the expenses for the year so no need for any additional donations. THANKS EVERYONE!

Total updated - getting closer. Here i was picturing the 4 corners of the US and a donation came from about the dead center of the country. Thanks!

Added to the total! We just need someone from the North East and we will cover darn near the 4 corners of the US. Getting close. I haven't poured anything yet. I am working on setting up an area to do it out in my shed so i didn't have to do it down in the basement and have the fumes in the...

Got it -updated to total. Money coming from coast to coast now, Washington state! I'll send you a PM just to make sure address is correct. Much appreciated.

Looks like we are on the board coming in from North Carolina!  Updated the total, thanks eddieb! I will send you my mailing info.   :icon14:

 ! GOAL REACHED ! $150.00 Raised  /  $150.00 Goal Hey all!  As most of you know, i have debated on what to do with the site looking forward.  The posting has sure slowed down and i don't have an answer for why.  I still do tie my own jigs and flies, but maybe not as much variety as i did at one...

I have at least 2 of my ice rods pretty much always rigged up with jigs. My lightest bluegill rod has a tiny tungsten head (#12 or #10 hook) that i add a single hackle feather to and most times will tip with a single maggot. When the fish are not willing to bite anything else, that tiny little...

Notice how far i was from shore...... that 2.1 mph did NOT last long. haha! I was so beat by the time i was walking back to the truck in the afternoon that i was counting 200 steps and then sitting on my bucket for a few minutes to take a rest. I've done some pretty long hikes acroos the ice...

Another warm winter here in Ohio with temps barely below freezing. Booked a hotel over the long New Years weekend and made the 5 hour drive North to Cadillac, MI. Fished Friday afternoon,, Saturday,, Sunday and Monday morning. They had enough ice to get out on, but not near as much as a normal...

duffy - There is really only skim ice around here. Same sort of yo-yo weather pattern. We did get a couple days of temps down in the teens but then it bounced back up to the 40's yesterday and doesn't look like it is gonna get consistently back below freezing for at least another week. If i...

Merry Christmas! Sure got that right about the year.... will be glad to move forward. Anyone get any good fishing gear for Christmas? Bought my own present a few weeks back. Found a helluva deal on a 13' pedal drive kayak! It was all rigged for fishing by the previous owner so won't really...

It is good to see there are still some people around and there are a few who have reached out to me about wanting to sponsor or help pay for the site. The last 3 or 4 years i have paid for it out of pocket with no real income actually coming from the site. I don't mind at least keeping it up...

With the country in a mess and there is no good answer to a lot of the questions and problems.... i find myself just shrugging my shoulder at the news because i unfortunately expect it now.  I have a deep seated "not my monkeys, not my circus" attitude and just worry about myself and how i can...

Those are nice simple ties. I make a few ice flies that i fish above jigging raps. The big flashy movement of the jigging rap brings in a lot of fish usually and the smaller bait will draw bites from the curious ones. Great video.

Nice underspin. A black/red combo is deadly on the smallmouth in my area.
