Original Post:

Using a drop shot rig has gained popularity lately as a freshwater fishing technique. After the spring spawn many fish go to much deeper water, especially in warm summer months in deep lakes and this is where the drop shot is needed. Many of the bass pros have used drop shotting effectively to score […]

Just when I thought I was about done buying crankbaits for walleye fishing, Frank’s Great Outdoors reels my interest back in.  While posting the home page for the store in the last post, I see this.  Just the sight of the Confusion pattern in the middle was enough to peak the interest.
Frank’s really is […]

Original Post:

Just a quick note on this, but people are walking out and catching walleye and perch on Saginaw Bay.
If you decide to make the trek up there, best bet is to stop by Franks Great Outdoors and get all the local information that you will need.  Also, its a lot easier to pick up […]

Going to wrap up the pics from the championships and get into some specifics in the gear used in the upcoming days.  Some will be about the companies, and backgrounds, but most will center around the gear itself, and more how to stuff.
That is Jim Martin from Brooklyn, Michigan fishing out of his Fish Trap […]

The Underground Christmas: What Did The Undergrounders Get?

Original Post:

Fly fishing related gifts are fun to receive, but they come with a certain degree of danger.
After all, you could end up hitting the cold, wintry river with the fly rod you dropped seventy-odd hints about, but you might also end up looking for a place to store that gold-leafed “fly fisherman in […]

Original Post:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TroutUndergroundFlyFishBlog/~3/202467329/
Ever since Rogue River guide Dave Roberts and I ran into each other on the Upper Sac (both of us casting bamboo fly rods and wondering who that other idiot was), we’ve been fast friends.
He was Best Man at my wedding, his duties largely confined to quick-drawing a flask of Irish Whiskey at opportune […]

We Know What Fly Fishermen Really Need: Fish With Frickin Laser Beams

Original Post:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TroutUndergroundFlyFishBlog/~3/202834406/
Let’s face it — you’ve already got so many fly rods that deciding which to take on your next trip already consumes most of the day.
You don’t need more. What you do need is: Fish with frickin’ laser beams attached to their heads.

From the “Think Geek” online catalog:
In the future, all […]

Just going to throw some more pics out there and comment on a few things.
Just to give you a couple of ideas of what it looked like while the guys waited to weigh in there fish.  This pic shows the number of vehicles out on the ice where the participants took their buckets and […]

It’s Cold. It’s Snowing… It’s Fly Tying Season. Would Somebody Please Order Prozac?

Original Post:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TroutUndergroundFlyFishBlog/~3/204219650/
Fly tying season starts after the fishing season ends, but before the Prozac prescriptions for fly fishermen experiencing withdrawal are handed out like candy.
Like any psychotic disorder, fly tying tends to encourage obsessive behavior, and while we’d never suggest that the bloggers named below necessarily fall into that category, we would also caution you […]

A Happy, Trouty Holidays From the Underground

Original Post:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TroutUndergroundFlyFishBlog/~3/206251413/
The L&T Nancy and I are hours from the nearest trout stream, but the Internet’s 24/7 from everywhere, so it’s no effort whatsoever to wish everyone a trouty (or carpy, or bassy, or whatever) Christmas.
At the Underground, we embrace diversity (hell, we’re even willing to kiss it on the lips), so no matter what […]
