New spot......more steelhead
(Preview)
Got rained out at work again which didn't bother me any. Decided to try a new spot that I hit earlier in the year. My timing was better this time around as I landed 3 steelies today. I threw back two of the smaller ones. A 13 and a 14 incher. Both were plants. I kept the larger of the 3 which measured in at...

More steelhead!
(Preview)
Went out with my brother this morning and we both did well again. My bro limited out on brookies while I landed a 26.5 inch steelie and a 17 incher. All the fish were natives and all, but one of the brook trout, were males. All this in under 2 hours. Found some morels on the walk back to the car as well. Wh...

Stalking steelies
(Preview)
Now that I did some research on streams open year round to trout and salmon, I grabbed my pole and headed out today. Although there were no takers, I did see and stalk a half dozen steelhead today. I also talked to a guy that was fly fishing the same stretch and he had a similar report. He said he did manag...

Ron Klintworth gave us these Brook Trout he caught yesterday morning on "some creek up by Gwinn". The biggest was just over 11 inches. All were perfect eaters and we had them for dinner last night. They were awesome!!! Many thanks Ron... Don't forget, trout season closes at the end of September....

OK, I'll admit it. I'm envious! Eight year old Hunter Shope just stopped by with an 18 inch Brook Trout!!! You just don't see Brookies this size every day folks. Congratulations Hunter. That's a fish of a lifetime!!!

No boards, no linecounters, no leadcore, no gps and a lot less hassle! That's part of the appeal of catfishing for me. A few hooks and sinkers and some cut up sucker and you are good to go! My wife Theresa and I went for a ride to the Menominee River to see if the cats are active yet. The first place we fished s...
