Like any other blog, random thoughts on random subjects. Might be interesting, or not. I probably won't be putting up much more here. I have other blogs. Only registered users can see this forum.

Very nice. You may have a future in putting things in writing.

The trick is longevity. That's a bitch. When you find yourself repeating yourself, you know your done.

I'm almost there.

That was one of those "just came right out" pieces. I wanted to get it out Monday, but the pictures and video were a collaboration.

I could have gone deeper into what we used, how we fished, what worked/what didn't, and other observations, but then it wouldn't be my story, it would be a fishing report, and I would have just posted it here or chitown, or at FHQ.


Spring break is coming up for me. Waders will be donned. Reports will be posted, and musings will be elucidated in my own personal reality.......

2 spots - The spot on the duper I have been harking on, and my favorite effluvium utopia..... :lol:

Those tend to be the best. The way I do it usually.

I'll give you a spot. Remind me. You might want to bring minnows for the heck of it. Big ones.

Excellent report Ed. Glad to see someone was getting something on the end of there lines as we Lewis and Clarked it down the DuPage. We did find some promising water that should be REAL thick with fish come late spring early summer.

Can't buddy, I'll be out targeting steelhead in OH for the weekend. Nate and I are traveling further East then we did last year. He has some info on some new waters. Maybe the weekend after that I'll be down.

Ok. Come home with fish porn then.

On a related note, does Nate want us to come out for this year's Walleye Run? Any chance of it happening?
