Wisconsin Steelhead and Brown Trout Round 2!
Made it out today with 2 clients on the tribs for steelies and browns and I was pleasantly surprised how well we did considering yesterday was horrible with just 4 fish landed. With the weather colder (18 degree's) this morning at 7 AM and blue bird skies I figured well it will be a tough one ...
Milwaukee Harbor Big Brown Trout
Was out Yesterday and today and the bite is really picking up! Clients landed some big fish this week. We had 3 big browns yesterday over 15 lbs what a blast on the light spinning tackle. Our fish came on gulp and power tubes, skein and spawn. Lots of fun for the guys!
Today we landed 20-25 fi...
Brown Trout, Steelies, Salmon and coho's
Made it out yesterday and we caught salmon, Steelhead, Browns, and coho's all in the same day. It took a while but we crushed the fish once we found them. We had to move a round a bunch to get on the the pod of fish at times it was every 5 seconds you had a fish on as fast as you could cast out....
Milwaukee harbor Brown Trout
Fishing for browns has been hit and miss this past week. We're still getting some kings but they are on there last few weeks now and most are not hitting too well in the harbor. Browns are hitting hair jigs, gulp with jigs, small white power tubes, and spawn. Early and late seem to be best fo...
Browns G'Lore !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think it's pretty obvious by the pictures that the masses of big Browns are working there way into the harbor now. Caught them pretty good this past week. Although they are plentiful this can be one of the toughest times to get the fish. As the water cools this bite will only get better ...
Big Browns and Kings In Milwaukee Harbor
Was out today with clients and my son also got to tag along with me in the afternoon and fishing was nothing short of fantastic! We hooked about 20 fish in 4 hours of fishing all casting with spinning tackle or baitcasters! . Kings, browns, bows and coho's are all showing up so if you can f...
God's Lake Manitoba Lake Trout
What a week is all I can say! I was very fortunate to be able to join a good friend and guide customer Tom on a trip to Elk Island Lodge on God's Lake in northern Manitoba. This would be Tom's 5th trip to this resort, and his third to Canada this year alone. We started with a 7 hour drive fro...
Early Rainbows in the U.P....
I hadn't touched a fly rod for way too long but when my friend Bill called me to tell about a couple new beaver ponds blocking a small tributary that has Rainbow trout...I grabbed my 8'6" 5 wt Orvis, a box of nymphs, and jumped in the truck! The Upper Peninsula has several blue ribbon trout stre...
Does is get any better, eh?
I just got back from 3 days of fishing in Canada on the very North reaches of Lake of the Woods. I'm not an expert on Lake Trout by any means, but thankfully I have a friend Jeff "Gussy" Gustafson, who lives in Ontario and is definetly an expert. We were fishing an area near Sioux Na...
Molson Lake Lodge Lake Trout report
I had the unusual opportunity to take advantage of someone's slight misfortunes this past week. Tom Wallrich and relatively regular customer of mine gave me a call and mentioned that his partner had to back out of a fly-in fishing trip and the trip was already paid for and I was the lucky angler...
North Shore Metalheads - 5/3/07
If you visit some of the steelhead sites online, most of them are saying the steelies have made their trips up to spawn, have done their business and made it back out to the lake...but I beg to differ. This 30 inch fish was our biggest of the day and was pushing 12 pounds. Read on to find out h...
Door County Brown Trout fishing 2007
The 2007 spring brown trout fishing trip went off fine without a hitch so to speak. A few minor mishaps that cost us some lures and a dinged up prop on the Yamaha T8 trolling motor. But, other than that, everyone made it home relatively unscathed with quite a bit of fish to boot. Most of it wil...
Southeast Wyoming Trout Ice Fishing Report
I was fortunate enough to spend half of Christmas day on the ice in Wyoming with my dad catching some of the most beautiful trout I've ever seen. The weather was great, the scenery was awesome and the fishing was outstanding. We were fishing at Finley Reservoir just outside of Saratoga, Wyoming...
Ice Fishing Trout - Foster Arends
I just had to get out for a couple hours Sunday afternoon with the warm temps and sunshine, so decided to stay close to home. Foster Arends Lake was just what the doctor ordered! It is located in NW Rochester and has special regulations to allow year round trout fishing. The ice was still ...
