River Smallmouths Early and Late

  My region’s river systems provide some of the best and most exciting smallmouth fishing early and late in the year. This year (2024), will remain to be seen, as we are in a major drought right now.

Location-Driven Largemouths

  In my region, the spring season is short and condensed, lasting from ice-out through spawn. Its duration varies each year, as it relates to both.

The Spring Playbook for Largemouths

  Spring offers early season largemouth opportunities and a bevy of shallow water action. Largemouths awaken quickly from their winter dormancies to feed heavily in preparation for their impending spawn. At fisheries they’ve been dialed in, their whereabouts and behavioral tendencies can be predictable. April and May will be the best two months to try

Conquering Cold Water Smallmouths

  Cold weather and water temperatures affect anglers more mentally than physically. Cold affects smallmouths too, but not as drastically as it does to humans. Isn’t it funny how smallmouths are heartier than people?

  Most years, I strive to be the first angler on the water targeting smallmouths at ice out. Doing this well before everyone else has become a unique fishing experience. While catching smallmouths from 39 to 42-degree water temperature is not an easy task across every Northwoods lake, results can be achieved if you are

  In the past, some fishing partners have given me grief for fishing too slow and methodical. There is a reason for this madness, which has been developed over several years of patterning big bass and understanding their locations as it relates to season, feeding times, and behavior on many of the specific waters I

Things I’ve Dismissed in the Past and Wished I Hadn’t

  I don’t live with any regrets, but I do wish I had a different perspective and opinion of some fishing related concepts and products long before I was convinced on them.

Smallmouth Fishing with Kids

  One of life’s greatest blessings is fishing with children, and introducing a youngster to the sport.
