| Article Title :: The Salmon Versus The Jetboat - And The Winner Is |
| |
| The Labor day weekend has passed, and I was lucky enough to spend one of the days on the Rogue River here in Oregon.Not getting to be a "tourist" in my own backyard very often, we treated ourselves to an exciting day on one of the jetboats that travel down and up the middle section of the Rogue below Grants Pass.This is a bit of a change in river travel for me, as my usual mode of travel is either in a driftboat, walking, or rafting.The jetboats offer a fast lane adventure-usually for tourists with limited time, and looking for the "Readers Digest" version of exploration on the Rogue. We had company visiting and since fishing is not an interest of theirs, this was the (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Winter Time Is Midge Time When It Comes To Fly Fishing For Trout |
| |
| Let’s face it, we dream in Technicolor of size 10 green drake hatches or Hexagenia Limbata as big as beavers - but the reality is Winter Time Is Midge Time. Often the only bugs on the frigid water are so small; they challenge most anglers to consider LASIK. And as you already know, much of the eating is under the surface.At a fly-tying class, I once heard a locally famous fly tier named Pops quip something along the line of "my second best fly tying material supplier is Hobby Lobby". This, of course, assumes that Blue Heron Fly Shop where we were sitting is his "first best". This guy is also well known for the quote "it ain’t no use, if it ain’t chartreuse" but that, as they (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Fishing Alaska: The Guide From Hell |
| |
| Fishing Alaska: The Alaskan Sampler Plate....Part IIThe good fortune of a successful fishing trip to Alaska was already socked away in the fishing memory box, so as far as I was concerned, everything else we caught was "gravy".Now you might say I am a guy with low expectations-and you might be right- but I never get to disappointed anymore(at least when it comes to fishing!) and if I catch more than one fish on a fly, I have pretty much exceeded my goals. Day threes "humpy" fishing was incredible.Thus, we entered day four-hump day on the fishing trip- with low expectations.We hadn't really kept many fish up to this point, so we began thinking about "meat fishin (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Fly Fishing For Fun |
| |
| Fly fishing is very different than fishing with a lure or worm type baits. The fly fisherman uses a artificial fly consisting of bites of feathers, foam, hide, fur, yarn, and other materials to be tried on to a hook that make it appealing to the type of fish you are catching.Every fly fisherman has his own type of flies he like to use some purchase them and then some of us like to tie our own. Fly tying is more of an art with basic training which most people can learn over a short period of time.Dry fly fishing is the best classic form of fishing. The artificial fly is cast so that it floats on the surface of the water. As the fly passes over the fish it will rise to the (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Shark Fishing: A New Found Addiction |
| |
| Shark Fishing From the Beach
It is a well known fact that in the summertime many Sharks move from the deeper waters offshore into inland waterways and beaches. Why do they do this? Well the Sharks seek warmer shallow waters to carry out mating rituals and to either lay eggs or give live birth. So why is this important? It is very important if you are interested in swimming or in landing huge fish from the bank. There is no other type of fishing (that I know of) where the angler has an exceptional chance of hooking on to a 500lb plus fish while fishing from the bank.Living near the Gulf of Mexico during my youth my family would take at least one vacation each s (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Stripped Marlin Madness! |
| |
| Another day in cabo san lucas fishing for stripped marlin. Anyone who has caught one of these fish know they put up a huge fight. Well it was about four in the morning when the alarm went off, time to roll out of bed for another day of tag and release fishing. There is nothing better than spending the day on the water with some good buddies collecting data on such a remarkable species. So as we got to the boat our friend and captain was already at the docks warming up the boat and buying bait from one of our locals.
So once we got there it was just time to untie the boat and push off for a day on the water. Well once we got past the port captain on the way out of the harbor, we (read full article) |
