Pike Through Ice
Ice fishing is not for the faint of heart and precautions regarding ice thickness and hypothermia should always be taken, but it’s also not difficult or reserved only for a few diehards. In fact, ice fishing derbies often attract thousands. Some central Wisconsin lakes resemble stadium parking lots complete with barbecue grills, large tents, canopies and the occasional pick-up game of football or Frisbee toss nearby.Jan 20th, 20260

Bassing Through The Ice
Ice fishing for largemouth bass may sound unusual, but when winter locks lakes in ice, the action is just getting started. Bass often hold in the same areas they used in fall, along weed edges, drop-offs, and river channels, waiting for an easy meal. With a few drilled holes, simple gear, and a lively minnow or jigging spoon, anglers can experience hard, aggressive strikes even when the temperatures are well below freezing.Jan 14th, 20260

Surviving Cold Water Shock
Cold water shock is the real killer in winter boating accidents, not hypothermia. The initial gasp reflex can overwhelm you in seconds, leading to rapid drowning if you’re unprepared. Learn how to control your breathing, use the HELP position, and apply survival techniques like the carpet formation to conserve heat, save energy, and dramatically increase your chances of survival in cold water emergencies.Jan 12th, 20260

Fly of the Month: Garners Carp Dancer
Carp on the fly has swept across the fly fishing community in recent years. I first began targeting carp near a local golf course where I worked.Aug 1st, 2013
Freshwater Mexico!
Let’s talk about fresh water for a change. Mexico has the best bass fishing in the world. Well, that’s what I think. There are three lakes that Charles and I fish. It is not uncommon for us to catch ten to twelve pounders in all of them. You fish them mostly the same way as you do anywhere with top water, crank baits, swim baits and the old standby, plastics.

Carp for Continual Summer Fun!
Carp, a Eurasian fish introduced here in the late 1870s, were thought to be a handy gamefish to replace the loss of native fishes along with being a yummy meal. The gamefish part lost a little of its flavor when it was realized that carp would not hit lures. They were also low on the choice of seafood menu items.
