Hooked up to a big fish on my ultralight.  My line got wrapped in a tree, and in the river on a 2x4, and the fish bent my hook, but I somehow still landed it.

Check out this vid where I catch two personal bests on the same trip with a wicked cheap Walmart Lure.

The Kalin's Tickle Tail worked really good in the river and in the pond for Largemouth.  It also was a pretty tough plastic.  

Navigated a shallow stretch of Southern Wisconsin Creek and found a lot of fish willing to bite.

I went to the harbor and tried out jigging for the four year old king salmon that are hanging around before they run upriver.

I've been told several times to try the rooster tail inline spinner for creek fishing. They were right! Caught a whole mess of fish in a little creek including some surprisingly large smallmouth with it.

Got a new surface lure called a Revolver and tried it out as well as compared it to a Hula Popper.  Caught smallmouth, pike, and largemouth.

I tried to catch a largemouth on five different bass fishing rigs.  I'm pretty partial to the Texas Rig after doing this. (Ned Rig is fun, too)

First time in this creek with an inline spinner, and it worked awesome.  Lots of rock bass and nice smallmouth bass caught.

I tried out five different plastics to see what worked best. Ever used a moustache worm? That actually works!

Went fishing in a ton of different spots and found a cool spot in Menomonee Falls.  Caught a creek chub that was pushing 10 inches.

Got a weird looking lure that really worked well to my surprise for rock bass, smallmouth bass, and largemouth bass.  I caught a really nice one on it.

This little crank bait worked really well for bluegill and rock bass in a crystal clear creek.

I guess... myself?  That wasn't fun.  Had a duck tangled in my line once, but it got off before I could land it.  

I caught a snapping turtle (unintentionally) some smallmouth bass (intentionally) and then lost the biggest pike of my life

Pain and Rock Bass - That's kinda what's in this fishing adventure (well, there's also largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, bluegill, and creek chubs!)

Went fishing in THE MIGHTY RUBICON and the swampy section in the middle was too much for me!  I did find a nice hole though that held a lot of fish! 

I found a larger version 1/4 ounce and tried it out.  It worked really well for crappie and bass.

Fished out of Port on Saturday.  Headed north. (three guys, nine lines)  We got out really early, which proved to be a great decision.  Between 4am and 5am we caught 10 king salmon, most on spoons, but the biggest one on a Flasher and fly.  (24 lbs).  We were in about 120 feet of water.  After that chaotic hour (twice we were tripled up), it totally slowed down.  Stayed out until 9am and only caught two more smaller salmon (one coho and one king).  Working on editing the video now.  Tons of boats out there today!  The water was 60-63 on the surface and 60-61 down about 50 feet (according to the fish hawk)

Fished the Wisconsin River, trying for muskies from shore.  However, there was a lot of surface action and I thought there were gar. I busted out a rope lure (it has no hooks) and things got nuts! Here's the video.

Remind me to use the net even if it is a smaller pike. Took my son pike fishing (we caught some smallmouth as well) and caught a few. It was a great day on the Milwaukee River, except for the fact that I need a new rod. We were using crank baits and inline spinners for the pike. 

My brother and I went fishing in the Milwaukee River and we caught a lot of smallmouth bass and some northerns. Here's the video

Fished in Pine Lake, a beautiful Southeastern Wisconsin Lake, and caught some fish for a fish fry!

Three lines are legal in Wisconsin, so I tried live bait vs. cut bait vs. worms.
