2010 College Fishing

2010-07-25T15:01:00.000-07:00

This year has been a great time tournament fishing. After having 1 year under our belts, I feel that we have a hang of how to scout, plan, and fish the tournaments.

The first tournament of the year was Mt. Island, which is a small fisherie in North Carolina. We fished there in late March and only caught short fish. Almost half the field didn't weigh a fish in!

The second tournament was the Potomac. I caught a 3 fish limit which included a 4 lber and my partner brian added 1 keeper. We took 10th place and missed qualifying by less than a pound!

The third tournamnet of the year was Champlain. Brian and I caught over 40 keepers, but just not the right size and took 17th. Tyler and Zach's team ended up catching a limit as well and weighed in two nice 4 lb smallies and took 7th place.

Next tournment is September 11th. This should be the tournament for us. I plan on living on the water up there and practice every weekend to locate some spots. Can't wait!

This summer was all about College Bass fishing. I started our team at SRU and I fished the first three events in the FLW college bass Northern Trail.

The first event was the potomac. Me and Ricky took 39th

Second was 1000 islands NY. Me and Brian took 22nd. I all the fish we weighed in. 3 smallies

Third was Lake Champlain NY. Me and Brian both caught 2 smallies and weighed in 4 fish for 7 pounds 4 ounces and finished in 17th.

2009 Trout Opener

2009-04-22T18:01:00.000-07:00

Well another interesting year... Trout camp may have been the greatest time ever.

"Do you have all you teeth?"

"Did you have them before?"

Anyways, haha, first day was pretty rough... ended up catching a couple at Raccoon but none at the first place.

Ended up with 4 total the first day.

The second day was a little bit better.. I caught 4 and Tyler and Bryan each got 3.

Ice Fishing

2009-03-09T21:22:00.000-07:00

Ice Fishing has been amazing this year. After a rough start at Misery and off Chestnut, we finally found some good water in NY. I hope to explore this lake more next year as well as Sturgeon Pt. and Bass islands in ohio. We'll see if I actually get to..... I would love to get a walleye through the ice next year too but it was a great end to this ice season.

Here are the pics

Late Fall/ Winter Erie '08

2009-01-20T10:37:00.000-08:00

We found some great new water in the Erie area. East side streams have really been great this year and the size of the fish is awesome! Egg sacks and egg patterns have worked the best, with also black stones producing.

Gotta Love Erie!

Neshanock Fall '08

2008-10-22T20:21:00.000-07:00

Neshanock has been really good recently.. always seem to catch fish there. I have been having luck on small dries size 12, 14,16.... wets 14,16.... and small nymphs. Just got an underwater camera too.

Fall '08 Erie

2008-10-22T20:14:00.001-07:00

Started off the '08 season really well on Oct. 5th with Himmel. Had a slow morning with Mark on catching one and me missing a few... The afternoon was great though. I landed 8 and Mark ended up with 4 on the day.

The next outing was Oct. 7th. Not so good. I Landed 2. 1 on skein and another on a chart. nymph. Dave, from my hunting and fishing club, dind't catch any but it was great time anyways.

Third outing was Oct. 19th. I went With Eric H. We didn't do good at all. Water was really low like on the 7th. I hooked one on a pink crystal myth.... but it broke me off about a foot from the net.
