The Fishing Hole
BIG things come from Small Packages….
My cousin has a beautiful cottage over on the Quebec side, when the invite came to use it we jumped at it. It’s been a crazy busy summer with over 3 months of either working, guiding or away on a … more…
A Visit to Spectacular NWT….
Cold January day phone call. Markus: “Hey Jackass, Cory is asking me if we want to come up to fish Great Slave this summer with him for a week. Interested?” RJ: “Ummm. Hell ya.” Markus: “When can you go?” RJ: … more…
Title Shot Successes…
About 7 years ago I somehow ended up with a few packs of Fin-Tech Title Shot jigs in my mountain of tackle. That Fall I slid a creature bait on one of them and from that day forward I was … more…
Birdee joins the 50 inch Club…
Launching the Lund at 3 PM, Birdee and I were on a Muskie Hunt. Guiding has had me hoppin’ busy so any chance to get out together we try to make it happen. The weather was unsettled. It had rained … more…
Crappie Spring….
Eastern Ontario never disappoints. That period between ice out and Pike/Walleye/Laker openers have us scrambling for a way to wet a line. No better way than chasing Crappie. Rather than fishing the same spots year after year we always branch … more…

Over the years I’ve fallen in love with Crappie fishing. A truly challenging fish to track as they transition in spring to summer patterns then even tougher as fall time comes. Fun but challenging. We’ve hoisted hundreds if not a … more…
Hudson River….Striper Beginnings.
Ever since my first crack at a Striper in Nova Scotia I was intrigued by them. A fish that can get to 40 lbs with a bad attitude and a generally pretty predictable disposition, I’m in! Seeing the odd TV … more…
A VERY Greasy start to 2015 open water season…
Eastern Ontario boasts countless fishing opportunities. Often we struggle on what to do on any given day but this day we had it planned long beforehand. Lake Ontario ice-out Lake Trout. Joining me on the day was bro-in-law Gord. We … more…
No Vexilar? No new PB Lake Trout…..
Since being shown the ways of a Vexilar over 10 years ago by Big Jim McLaughlin I have never been without one on the ice. It’s as important to me as any other piece of equipment, in most cases more … more…
