Fall Transition Time

When I think “Fall Fishing” the smile on my face stretches from ear to ear. This is the time of year that gives anglers the best opportunity to land the fish of a lifetime. As fish transition from their summer spawning mode and migrate to their winter haunts, kayak anglers are provided with arguably the hottest action of the year.

The Confidence Game

Confidence and concentration hold the keys to catching fish routinely on artificial lures. You must have total confidence in the bait you are using. If you begin to lose it, switch to a different offering. Peek in the tackle box of an experienced fishermen and you will discover he only carries a few different lures, but several of each one.

Fall Stream Fishing

It was a late September day on the Davidson River, N.C. The sun was setting, and its rich orange color was glistening through the leaves of a sugar maple, which had already turned to its mighty fall splendor. As I grabbed this last shot for an episode of Fly Rod Chronicles, I was amazed by how smooth the shoot went.

Limit Your Scent In The Deer Woods

Whitetail deer have been witnessed reacting to human body odor from as far away as a half-mile. That alone tells you the odds are stacked against you when trying to defeat a deer’s olfactory capabilities.

Autumn Offshore Transition

As July turned to August this year, the summer tuna bite for the San Diego long-range fleet was absolutely on fire; as evidenced by the success found by 22 Penn Fishing University anglers who ventured out for a 5-day long-range trip aboard Captain Mike Lackey’s ‘Vagabond’, out of Point Loma Sportfishing in San Diego.

Know Your Birds

Many of today’s anglers rely on electronics and digital gadgetry to locate fish and to pinpoint productive fishing areas. But perhaps best and least expensive fish locator is your eyesight’s ability to spot birds’ working the fishing grounds.

Another Way to Fish

For easy freshwater fishing and a relaxing time on the water, try fishing a live minnow or small panfish. For some simple fishing from bank, bridge, pier, boat or even when wet-wading, hook the bait and carefully cast it into open water. Make the cast slowly so as to not snap the bait off of the hook.

Why Try Technical Diving?

Tec diving is obstacle-ridden and humbling, but can reignite a fading passion. It can leave you with a sense of accomplishment and a refined set of diving skills. It grants access to depths beyond recreational limits, where lesser-known shipwrecks and deep reefs lie, waiting to be explored.
