It’s been awhile since we’ve posted a report, but it’s not because we haven’t been on the water.  A super nasty stretch of weather has made things interesting over the last couple of weeks, but we’ve had some incredible people in the boat to get through it.  Since when did winter start in October?… It’s…

We’re definitely not easing into October with our weather patterns.  It’s been a cold week, but falling water temperatures are definitely setting up some predictable fall bites.  We fished through a lot over the past several days including wind, rain, thunderstorms, and even ice storms.  Seems a bit early for that…  Despite the weather we’ve…

It’s really trying to be fall around here.  Geese are flying south, loons have left, and the tree colors are starting to pop.  Extremely warm temperatures continue however, but it looks like big changes are on the way this week.  Might be time to put the shorts away… Mylo Gustafson (Maple Grove, MN) with his…

With Labor Day Weekend in the rear view mirror, it’s time to set our sights on the fall bite in northern, Wisconsin.  Extremely hot and dry temperatures we had in July and August are definitely affecting the fall cool down, but cool nights and shorter days are on the way.  Fall is knocking on the…

August is in the books, and we’re definitely seeing evidence of the seasons changing.  I’m always sad to see summer go, but shorter days and cooling water temperatures usually mean some big numbers and big fish days are on the way.  Fall can arguably bring some of the best fishing of the year, so it’s…

Timing is everything…  If I ever had a doubt, it’s been proven this season…  It’s been a crazy year with lots of twists and turns in weather and fishing conditions.  One thing is for sure.  Patterns have been consistently changing, and you can’t get comfortable fishing one place one particular way.  Stay versatile, and you’ll…

Some much needed rain last week helped take the edge off of an incredibly hot and dry July, and we’ve enjoyed relatively stable weather over the past week with warm weather and reasonable winds.  I think we deserved it…  Although August isn’t on the top of many people’s “Prime Time” fishing periods, I could argue…

If there was any doubt that the Dog Days had arrived in our last report, I’m here to tell you that it’s official.  Typical for this time of year, you need to be flexible when locating fish with every body of water being a puzzle.  Sometimes historical patterns hold true, and sometimes not.  Water temperature,…

The Dog Days of summer usually arrive in August, but I think it’s safe to say that they arrived early this year.  Why wouldn’t they?…  We started our week out with smoking hot temperatures again, but a cool down is supposed to be in the forecast.  Things might finally be settling down after all the…

And just like that, its the 4th of July…  We’re burning through this fishing season.  Literally burning!  Our temps continue to be in the mid to high 80’s almost daily with even a few hitting the mid 90’s.  I have a feeling warm water temps will be a big part of our story over the…
