Kayak Fishing Anyone? Tough Go... #shorts

Tough go at our local lake yesterday. Struck out at Clear Lake Park on Lake Lavon. At least got a great workout! Later, fished Highland Park. Had a few hits on Shad. Even had one on the line but did not keep it... had a lesion that I was wary about.

Fiberglass Fly Rod - Slow Speed, No Drag, Gets Bassy #shorts 😀

This round I take the old Cortland Fiberglass Rod that has no drag except for the reel clicker and palming the reel to the local pond for Bass. Rod has a slow action making it really bendy!

Another video snippet of the effectiveness of this combo. Popper catches fish'. Fly Rod casts well even over the shoulder, too!

White Bass Brunch - Catch and Cook

Here is the follow-on catch and cook video to our "Kayak Fishing for Whatever Bites" video! Simple recipe that calls for Garlic Salt and Black Pepper! Do give it a try!

Kayak Fishing for Whatever Bites, Else Getting a Workout In

Headed to the local lake for kayak fishing Saturday morning. Heat Advisory in effect, so we were not sure if the fish would be biting.

Plan was to either bottom bounce a slab and jig rig or troll it for whatever bites. Else, would get a workout in paddling to and from the boat ramp.

Managed two White Bass - one on a yellow Slab and one on a Crappie Jig. Also, had a little Channel Catfish strike a Crappie Jig bottom bounced.

Not sure how we plan to cook the two White Bass, but will post a video. Do check back! 

Suzuki 2.5hp Outboard, PVC Tool for Jon Boat Seat, and DIY Side Numbers 👍👍👍#shorts

Took the Jon Boat out last weekend. Suzuki 2.5hp Outboard is working well on the 12ft Jon Boat. Plus, the PVC tool continues to make life easier when securing the clamp on seats to the boat, and the DIY side numbers are holding much better than the store bought ones! Overall, Charlie the Maltese Doggy approves! 🐶🐶🐶👍
