My day off fishing appears to be a wash again today with 50 mph winds and rain expected. Here is Jim and my first trip last year on Coldwater Lake in southern Michigan. Anyone else ever fish this lake before? Coldwater Lake Michigan Fishing Video Click Here

Detroit River fishing video summer of 2022. You never know what you're going to catch on the Detroit River. This particular day was a great multi species day on the river. There aren't too many fisheries that hold the number of fish that the Detroit River does. Sometimes it's just a matter of getting on the right area. Come along for a trip on the Detroit River with R & J Bass Fishing. Detroit River Fishing Video Click Here

Here is a fishing trip Jim and I had last spring on Sandusky Bay. Looking forward to getting back out there. We were bass fishing, but it seemed like you had a bite almost every other cast with the catfish and junk fish mixed in. Sandusky Bay Fishing Video Click Here

Here is a trip from last year fishing ultra clear water of Northern Michigan in the Lower Peninsula. Four and a half hours to get some fish in the boat and this lake never disappoints me for getting bites. #bassfishing #fishing #walloon #lake #michigan #smallmouth #bass #outdoors #news Fishing Ultra Clear Water of Northern Michigan Video Click Here

It's hard to beat West Harbor of Lake Erie for quantity of bass. This trip you will get to see lots of aerial views of the harbor that you may have not fished before. Great place to kayak, or even big enough for bass club tournaments. It's gets tons of pressure, but somehow still produces all year long. This particular day was a Monday at the end of June. Tons of fishing pressure over the weekend, and still, lots of bass boats on Monday. I did some minor tweaking of lures and came up with a good combination to put lots of bass in the boat. Thank goodness for old lure that the bass probably hadn't seen that much. If you're looking for a break from the winter blues. Come along for the sights, sounds, and some fishing on the Great Lakes. #WestHarbor #LakeErie #bassfishing #bass #ohio #outdoors #news #fish #bass #lake #erie #GreatLakes West Harbor Lake Erie Bass Fishing Video Click Here

Walleye and bass fishing Lake Erie Catawba Island area September 28th. The video below was a fun day on the lake. For some crazy reason the walleye was right up on the shoreline. Guys were catching them from shore this particular day. The baitfish must have been pushed in there good. Maybe something to check out until the ice comes back for fishing.

I was finally able to meet up with my good buddy Jim from northeast Ohio. We stuck to fishing East Harbor of Lake Erie for the day. Man does that harbor hold some fish! East Harbor Lake Erie Video Click Here

I was scouting out new areas at the mouth of the Maumee River and western end of Lake Erie. You sure do fish lots of dead water when scouting, but when you find new areas holding fish it sure is rewarding. Lake Erie and Maumee River Fishing Video Click Here

It's crazy in the past year I've saved two seagulls on Lake Erie. The first one had a reef runner stuck in its feet. This one was tangled in something completely different. It managed to get a couple good pecks in before I was able to release it. Luckily, I was able to capture it on video. Saved Seagull Video Link

Jim and I took a fishing trip to Lake Erie last Saturday. The fishing wasn't fantastic, but the day on the water was certainly fun. We fished lots of areas that would be good for a small boat or kayak. The interactions with people on the water remind me of what I like about fishing. There are lots of good folks out there. Hope you enjoy video. https://rumble.com/v1g18rt-lake-erie-bass-fishing-largemouth-august-2022.html?mref=66lt3&mc=9e0fe

I had the pleasure of fishing Crooked lake a little over a week ago. Water was crystal clear and there was no breeze at all. I was able to stick some decent fish and took some aerial views of the lake. Crooked Lake Video Click Here

It's not too often you can fish the Great Lakes with topwater and get away with it. It's usually too rough, or the seagulls are trying to eat your lure. This day it seemed like it was the only thing the bass would eat. Lake Erie Topwater Fishing Video

What a fun place to fish! This place has so many places to catch bass there isn't enough time in the day to check them all out. Come along with me as I check out Sandusky Bay of Lake Erie and see what it has to offer. Sandusky Bay Bass Fishing Video

Anyone know the best time of year to hit Little Traverse Bay? I took the vacation a little too early again this year. Water was still too cold for the smallmouth to be moved up. Caught a ton, but the big ones were missing. Little Traverse Bay Video
