St. Lawrence River practice is complete. Tournament tomorrow. I am boat 7, and Ken Pfeiffer is boat 34. Takeoff is at 6 AM I am excited about this trip. I had fun exploring the St. Lawrence River this week. I look forward to fishing tomorrow. :-)


Caught this 2lb 14oz crappie back in February. Still holds biggest crappie of the year there.


5lbs 9oz, 21 1/4” on a 1/8oz Purple Rain SMH kit. Usied a Level NGSX610LF with a 1000 size Stradic spinner. Everything used except the reel was bought at the SUF retreat.




Took my 13 yr old out on Lake Erie this afternoon to the same spot I caught my smallie on yesterday morning and he caught his first bass!!










Simplicity going back to simple has helped me a lot lately downsizing and finesse 2.25” tubes and a straight tail GP blue with tip dyed chartreuse 1/8 oz Texas rig have been on fire lately. Find my self getting a lot of rods out and using only a couple having to tell myself keep it simple stupid put the lot of rods away and just fish smaller and slower as the heat rolls in catching more and bigger fish that way.














Didn’t have time to hit a lake today but got to hit the pond this morning
One of the many things I love about fishing meeting new people that share the same passion about it as you. Sometimes you meet your newest fishing buddy or you share info with someone that’s never fished that lake before. It’s more than just fishing it’s the memories the moments of quite in the wee early morning hours or sunrises/sunsets. The getting outdoors and just enjoying the simple things listening to the wildlife and letting the things in life that may be a burden gone for that moment, cause in those moments nothing but enjoying nature and trying to solve the puzzle are all that matter.












Some fishing shenanigans from today went out this evening for a few hours and found some rain had to use the Brian Latimer technique (drop shot) put that old sissy stick to use today.. managed to break my lews sissy stick but Brian Barde pink power princess is still holding strong
