On one great July morning Thunder, a buddy and I took out my boat and caught a couple bass. (July 2005)

Here a snap shot of an 17lb Chinook Salmon I caught while trolling in near Ludington, MI in August 2004.

Here are some pictures from August of 2002. Dad and I went Fly fishing for the elusive Brook Trout in dah U.P. eh!

This past winter (2001-2002) the weather here in Michigan did not cooperate with the local ice fishermen. As a result I focused my energies else where and built my very own fly rod. I used a St. Croix IV 8 ft. 4 wt blank, with titanium single foot guides, made my own burl cork handle, and placed a maple reel seat on it. This thing is a dream to cast. It has already paid for itself. It helped me land this Master Angler size Blue Gill (11.25 inches long) along with this Bass.

This particular fish (the 11.25 inch blue gill) )turned out to be the FIFTH LARGEST CAUGHT IN THE STATE for 2002 and got me 2 minutes of fame on the outrageously popular local PBS show "The Practical Sportsman".

I am currently in between a couple of fall Salmon trips. I have been back to Ontario with Rotecki and then again with the Horn / BBMM clan. These two trips have generated a lot of photos and even a few MPEG's. So watch for those to come. Plus the 2001 'You Were Horsing'em Salmon Fishing Trip' is yet to come this October. Stay tuned!

Here are the pictures from the 2nd year of the spring Steelhead fishing trip. This year there was a lot more fish and a lot less snow.

Would like to view a little flash site of the 2nd annual 'You Were horsing 'em Salmon Fishing Trip' (Fall 2000).
