catch catfish with plastic baits (+road trip with pet cats)

Most fishermen use chopped bait for catching catfish, but I like to use plastic baits by Berkley because it works, it is easier to handle and it is not as messy. I cast for bottom feeders in the river from my canoe. During this getaway, I travel with my pet cats and show you a place that is nice for those who are cat lovers, the furry kind, that is.

can my fish finder help target fall bluegill in choppy water?

On a cold and windy Fall day, I go canoe fishing for Bluegill. I use the Humminbird Fishin Buddy depth finder to help me target the elusive fish in choppy waters.

Still, it is a nice time to go fishing, enjoy the Autumn leaves, see a big family of swan, see a turtle and watch the beautiful sunset. Plus, what does my cat see? Check it all out in my video!

red breast sunfish fun, mini plastic worm for bass test & watch the supermoon

I found 3-Inch Senkos in the bargain bin, and then they ended up lost at the bottom of my tackle box… until now. While canoe/kayak panfishing, I test out the miniature green pumpkin (brown) senkos to see if Smallmouth are interested in them. Plus, let’s enjoy the beauty of the giant Supermoon.

will sunfish go for fake grubs in stained water? + watch fireflies at dusk

Summer is almost over but fishing is still hot, and so is the weather. After a recent rainstorm, I test out the Berkley Gulp Alive Jigging Grubs to see if it can catch Bluegill in dark dirty water. Plus, let’s watch two kinds of fireworks, from the brilliance of 4th of July to the natural glow of Fireflies at dusk.

video: tiny broken bait still catches multi-species fish

Artificial baits fall apart after awhile from fighting fish, naturally. Baits are not cheap. I dislike losing money AND wasting lures, so I continue to use the broken grub. Not every bait has to have a curly tail to catch fish. In this episode, I demonstrate how effective a tiny piece of grub can still catch multi-species and a big bass! Check my video!

Plus, in the end, enjoy the purple dusk sky and moon peaking through the clouds.

relaxing canoe spring fishing for bass + fox babies

Let just have fun doing simple canoe fishing at a remote lake, and escape the noisy city. We can do relaxing fishing for bass and enjoy the sounds of nature, from frogs croaking to birds singing. Plus, there are cute baby foxes in my backyard! My cat likes to watch them too. Check out my latest video.

seek first bass of the year, a young raccoon and here comes the rain

In Spring, it is great time to fish for spawning species such as White Perch and Largemouth Bass. I go canoe fishing in hopes to catch the big ones by using hard baits, including the Rapala Rippin Rap, Johnson Beetle Spin and Yozuri Jerkbait. Plus, I see a cute young raccoon that is exploring the river’s edge, and then the rainstorm comes. Check out my latest video!

are any fish around yet in cold water? / early spring paddling with friend

As soon as a warm day arrives after a frigid winter, I take the opportunity to canoe kayak with a friend. It is early Spring, but is the water too cold to catch any fish? Check out my latest video! Plus, there are Robins exploring the grass, looking for yummy treats. The early bird catches the worm, right?

first fish of spring and it’s a biggie! (can my new 2-piece rod pull in a carp?)

I got a new rod for the new season, the St. Croix travel rod, and I test it out to see if it can handle a big Carp. Let’s see if is strong enough. Plus, wildlife, life a muskrat and turtles, come out from hibernation! I see a beautiful eagle too!
