It’s Okay to Harvest [some] Bass

  A significant cold front blew through one morning in late-July, changing the trajectory of our trip with my guide customer Bjorn and his two young boys. Smallmouths were laying low, and disengaged. We had more than 6 hours of fishing time remaining.

Forgotten Lures

  Last summer (2022), the household had an awakening. My dad, packing for a vacation to the Colorado Rockies, had requested I furnish him with a travel kit to be able to catch trout from the mountain streams. Digging thru my storage shelves for trout-friendly lures, I pulled out a large Plano stowaway of Mepps

Indian Summer Largemouth

  Every fall season, there always seems to be a week or two of disruptive weather delaying fall turnover and the season’s entire progression. High pressure systems stall overhead, persisting and seemingly unwilling to relent, bringing with it bright sun, heat, and little wind. 60 degree water temperatures that should be cooling into the upper

Largemouth Bass and Bluegill Connections

  Spawning seasons have recently completed, and summer’s peak is nearing. With such a long and stable period taking place during the July and August months, summer fishing strategies are predictable when focusing on the locations and habits of a single predator and its prey.

Hump Jumping Bass

  On a trip day last season, while navigating my way around the thousand-acre lake, I was observant of my Lowrance HDS-12 Live C-Map and Navionics Charts. Up until that point, smallmouth and largemouth were not biting with much frequency and fervor for my customer and me.

It is a limited renewable resource for its precipitation and evaporation cycle. Water always evaporates, moving to the atmosphere where it will help create the next incoming weather system. Jet streams will

Bass Funnels

  When the going gets tough, the tough get going. Admittedly, poorer fishing days outweigh the good days, and this happens more often than we’d like due to powers beyond our control. When faced with challenges and problems such as bass not being located where they’re supposed to, inactivity, or foul conditions, good anglers will

Northwoods Backwaters

  From shallow sloughs and oxbows winding off the Upper Mississippi River and Wisconsin River systems, to the slop-choked bays and flood plains of lowland flowages, and the ditches and small creeks inletting into drainage lakes, backwaters offer unreachable populations of big fish that are least pursued.

Ice Out Bass

  Across many northern waters, bass action begins immediately after ice-out. Where catch and release-only spring regulations are implemented in Michigan and Wisconsin, it’s now possible to target largemouth and smallmouth on inland lakes during March and April while other gamefish species remain closed. Nowadays, there is no waiting game for bass seasons to open,
