Here is the latest from the guys at Matthew’s Bait and Tackle.  When I write that, it reminds me of “Tool Time”, when Tim Allen would say, “The guys from K&B Construction; Rock, Dwayne and Pete from Bay City”.  I don’t know why,  IT JUST DOES.
 
WALLEYE FISHING IS GOOD AGAIN !!!
It looks like […]

Bottom Bouncers Arrived

Original Post:

The bottom bouncers I ordered showed up today via UPS.  One dozen, unpainted….inexpensive, and had the twist eye on top just how I like it.

 
You really don’t have to paint them, lots of folks don’t.  I do,  and in all honesty its for something to tinker with more than anything else.  If you do decide […]

This just in from the guys @ the bait shop.  After reading it,  it made a lot of sense with the number of perch we had hitting on the harnesses and tots the other day.
WALLEYE FISHING HAS SLOWED SOME BUT PERCH FISHING HAS BEEN REALLY GOOD!!

When I wrote this up last night, I forgot to include WTP’s new updated website with it’s store.  You can go to www.wtp-inc.com and click the “shop now”  option.
There are some of the ” ladderback ” cutouts that I used for the earlier piece, and even if you aren’t just walleye fishing, they can […]

The Metal Cage Death Match between the American Fly Fishing Tackle Association (AFFTA) and Chuck Furimsky’s Fly Fishing Show has seemingly delivered us a winner.

Original Post:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TroutUndergroundFlyFishBlog/~3/300107007/
Even those raving, anti-business liberals at BusinessWeek have seen the writing on the wall surrounding Nestle’s predatory approach to rural water supplies:
This is cautionary tale for any company. Time was when multinationals could arrive in economically depressed communities and pretty much have their way. But in the age of hyper connectedness, residents in McCloud […]

These deep cup #5 colorado blades are from Northland, and […]

Are you being Harrassed, YOU HAVE RIGHTS

Original Post:
http://www.blogsmonroe.com/fishing/2008/05/27/are-you-being-harrassed-you-have-rights/
I was looking up the dates for the free fishing weekend this summer, and saw this.  It doesn’t happen often, but if you are harrassed while in the lawful act of fishing, you do have rights.  This is from the DNR’s website, read it, check out the links.
